Join two South Island grandes dames, Rosie Belton and Dot Smith, as they entertain you over tea and biscuits with readings and stories from their recent books.

In her delightful memoir, Wild Blackberries, Rosie Belton has written not only her own story but also a social history of food in New Zealand. In Dot – Queen of Riverstone Castle Dot Smith tells of growing up on a dairy farm, her struggles and triumphs, the travels that have inspired her and her castle near Oamaru. Hosted by Ruth Todd from Bookenz on Plains FM.
