Award winning Sri Lankan-born Australian author Michelle de Kretser talks about her novel The Lost Dog which is set in the Australian bush. We find out about a publishing phenomenon on the streets of Delhi and we talk to the literary executors for Janet Frame and Jack Kerouac to find out what they do to protect the copyright and reputations of their late authors.
