John Niven and Viv Groskop (Is a school reunion ever a good idea?)

Bestselling author John Niven and writer, broadcaster and comedian Viv Groskop go head to head in a very competitive Book Off!


"Heartburn" by Nora Ephron goes up against "Rabbit Is Rich" by John Updike in the war of the words...but which should win?


As well as talking about their latest books, John and Viv also discuss school reunions and great Russian novels! Naturally.
