Episode description

World Book Club took to the air over two decades ago and it is still going strong. Each month an author is quizzed by a live audience. We speak with its long-running host Harriett Gilbert and ask how do you make a show appeal to those who are not heavy readers? And listeners give their thoughts.

Plus, how a recent edition of HardTalk on Iranian Kurds hit the nail on the head for a listener in the US.

Presenter: Rajan Datar Producer: Howard Shannon A Whistledown Production for BBC World Service
