Once a month, we challenge a member of New Zealand's literary community to go back and re-read a book they read long ago that had a real impact on them, to see what has changed.
Tonight, we are joined in our Wellington studio by playwright Victor Rodger, who has reread Alan Hollinghurst's 2004 Booker Prize-winning novel The Line of Beauty ahead of interviewing Alan at the upcoming Auckland Writer's Festival.
