Winner of the BBC National Short Story Award, Saba Sams joins us with Gunk, her pacey debut novel about love, family, and messily complex relationships. Joining her is Alessandra Thom, winner of 2023’s Scottish Book Trust New Writers Award. Thom’s Edinburgh-set debut, Summer Hours, is a sizzling story of what happens when the lines of friendship are blurred. Sams and Thom sit down to discuss their sparky new novels with Beth Cochrane.
