Winner of the Booker Prize, the Arthur C. Clarke award, the Governer-General’s award amongst many others, Margaret was in Australia for the Perth Writers Festival and a performance of The Year of the Flood in Brisbane. While here, she join Sky Kirkham to talk about the environment, shifting perspectives and sprightly pigoons. Originally broadcast on 28/02/2013.
