Awe
Episode description
Jamila Rizvi and Astrid Edwards consider awe - awe of the little things in our daily lives, as well as awe of the bigger things that may change us.
Chapter 1: Jamila and Astrid unpick what they each understand awe to be.
Chapter 2: Jamila goes deep on Julia Baird's Phosphorescence, a work that reminds us all about the lightness and joy we can find in daily life.
Chapter 3: Astrid explains how Arundhati Roy's novel The God of Small Things and polemic The Cost of Living changed her life twenty years ago.
Recommendations: Astrid recommends all of the poetry by Ali Cobby Eckermann, especially ‘Ruby Moonlight’. Jamila takes a deep breath and recommends 'When Breath Becomes Air' by Paul Kalanithi.
Join us on Thursday for an interview on awe with the unforgettable Kate Richards.
