Description

Tania Farrelly's debut novel "The Eighth Wonder" (Penguin) is one of those books I found so brilliant it left me amazed and envious in equal measures! It was inspired, nuanced, thought-provoking and intelligent - so much so, it's difficult to fathom that it's a debut.

It's book that takes readers on a journey through New York in the early 20th century. A time of great contradictions and one that posed so many challenges for women.

I was thrilled to have the chance to speak with Tania about this divine book earlier this year.
