Bookclub with Danielle Raffale: Endling by Maria Reva

We only ask the great philosophical questions on Bookclub, like ‘do you read the last page of a book first?’ and if so, why?

We also review books too, like the 2025 Booker shortlisted novel Endling by Maria Reva about a Ukrainian scientist who tries and fails to breed snails on the brink of extinction against the backdrop of Russia’s ground invasion of Ukraine.
