About this listen
In this episode of Tom’s Book Club, Tom speaks to journalist and author Sophie Elmhirst about Maurice & Maralyn: A Whale, a Shipwreck, a Love Story, the remarkable true story that captured readers and critics alike.
Winner of the Nero Gold Prize last year, Maurice & Maralyn is a gripping and deeply human work, exploring the extraordinary lives of a British couple stranded on a raft in the middle of the Pacific for 118 days. As this year’s Nero Awards ceremony approaches next week, we’re revisiting this standout conversation.
Sophie discusses how she uncovered the story, the challenges of shaping real lives into compelling narrative, and what drew her to Maurice and Maralyn in the first place.
