Chris Power speaks to Miranda Cowley Heller, a former HBO executive turned novelist. Her debut, The Paper Palace is set in the wild backwoods of Cape Cod over fifty summers. Elle, a fifty-year-old happily married mother of three is staying at her family鈥檚 summer camp The Paper Palace which she has visited every summer of her life. One of those summer mornings she awakes after having sex with her oldest friend Jonas, and over the next twenty-four hours, will need to decide between the life she has made with her loved husband, Peter, and the life she always imagined she would have had with her childhood love, Jonas.

Writer Sara Collins and literary critic Leo Robson talk about their recommended reads for this summer, from renewed classics to best new releases, they give a personal take on the summer books lists around elsewhere.

And a summer childhood favourite from thriller writer Clare Mackintosh as she takes us to the Lake District for the Book I鈥檇 Never Lend.
