Show Notes

In The Art of Persuasion, twenty-five-year-old Hazel is reading the classics, starting with 'A' and Jane Austen when she meets an irresistible older man on the train. When they are partnered on a political campaign, Hazel's attraction to him deepens and things start to get complicated. Western Australian short story writer and novelist Susan Midalia chats to Jess Gately about writing comedy and writing romance, about what literary fiction means to her and why Jane Austen's novel Persuasion inspired her latest book.
