Robbie Arnott & Jean-Baptiste Del Amo: A Long Shadow

Can we choose who we become, or are our lives already mapped out for us by dint of who we’re related to? Limberlost (by twice Miles Franklin Award-listed author, Robbie Arnott) and The Son of Man (by Animalia author, Jean-Baptiste Del Amo) are brilliant and fierce novels of nature and troubled fathers. Hear the authors in discussion with Malachy Tallack as they unpack the idea of inheritance.
