In this episode, Jen Bowden is joined by Molly Schmidt, winner of the 2022 City of Fremantle Hungerford Award for her debut novel Salt River Road.
Salt River Road is a compelling coming-of-age novel about grief and healing set in a small town in the 1970s. It’s a poignant exploration of healing and resilience, small-town racism and the power of human connection.
