Joanne Harris & Margie Orford: Women in a Man’s World image
Synopsis:

Join Joanne Harris, author of Chocolat, and Margie Orford, who penned the acclaimed Claire Hart thrillers, as they discuss how women confront male privilege and walk their own paths. In Harris’s A Narrow Door, an elite grammar school employs its first ever female headteacher – and then uncovers a body.
 
In Orford’s The Eye of the Beholder, a woman intent on avenging her tortured past causes secrets to spill. The two authors speak to journalist Jackie McGlone today.
