Sliding Doors

On health grounds, Florence Knapp has had to cancel her travel to New Zealand and Australia. Lucy Hone takes her place in this session.

We all have them.

Points in our lives where a seemingly small moment, event or decision forked our path and led our life down a whole other route.

Where – or indeed, who – would you be if things had gone even slightly differently?

What different threads would have made up the tapestry of your life as you know it?

Petra Bagust meets two novelists whose best-selling books explore this in fascinating ways: Lily King (Heart the Lover) and Josie Shapiro (Good Things Come and Go) and Lucy Hone (How Will I Ever Get Through This?) whose work explores how we think about change and loss.

Together they discuss the small moments in life that become the big, and the allure of imagining the paths not taken.
