Welcome to the travel/literary podcast The Wandering Book Collector with host Michelle Jana Chan. This is a series of conversations with writers exploring what's informed their books and their lives around themes of movement, memory, sense of place, borders, identity, belonging and home.
In this edition, I speak with the writer Justin Marozzi to discuss his book Islamic Empires: Fifteen cities that define a civilisation.
