Mariella Frostrup talks to Evie Wyld about The Bass Rock, her new novel about a Scottish island and three different generations of women constrained by insular attitudes.
Louise Doughty investigates ghostly narrators in fiction, a haunting device used in her latest Platform Seven.
And a very different island is discussed with Polly Samson, whose new book re-imagines Leonard Cohen's time on Hydra and his relationship with Australian author Charmian Clift.
