Summary

When I heard that Irish writer and creative writing lecturer Roisin Kiberd had written a book of essays on beauty, I knew I had to read it. Once I'd read it, I knew I had to chat to her about it, so that's what you're going to hear today. The Most Normal Woman explores Roisin's relationship with beauty, beauty ideals, beauty niches and beauty standards and I absolutely loved it.
