BAFTA Award-winning broadcaster and novelist Graham Norton discusses Frankie, his fifth novel, which centres on the life of an apparently unremarkable Irish woman in her eighties as she recounts her story to a young carer.

Graham Norton shares the three key literary influences that helped shape the novel: Elizabeth Bowen鈥檚 The Last September (1929), Armistead Maupin鈥檚 Significant Others (1987), and Gabrielle Zevin鈥檚 Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow (2022).

Joining the discussion is acclaimed Irish author, poet, and LGBT+ activist Mary Dorcey.
