Anna Macleod talks to two guests about their favourite books. In this episode, Gilleasbuig Ferguson and Catriona MacRae discuss the books which have made an impact on their lives.

Bi Anna NicLeòid a' còmhradh ri dithis eile mu na leabhraichean as fheàrr leotha agus a' faighinn a-mach barrachd mun bheatha aca. Anns a' phrògram seo bi an craoladair Gilleasbuig Fearghasdan a' bruidhinn mu dheidhinn an leabhar a tha a' comharrachadh ceanglaichean pearsanta ri Canada agus cuideachd mar a tha leth-bhreac de dh'fhaclair sònraichte cho cudromach dha. Nuair nach bi Catriona NicRath trang na dreuchd mar dhotair teaghlaich bi an leughadh aice ga toirt gu Majorca
agus Afghanistan am measg àiteachan eile. Bi i cuideachd a' mìneachadh cho cudromach sa tha leughadh dhan teaghlach aice agus mar a thug leabhar a bha an nighean aice a' leughadh buaidh mhòr oirre.

A' bharrachd air a bhith a' bruidhinn mu na leabhraichean as fheàrr leotha tha iad air aon dhiubh sin a mholadh dha chèile air son a leughadh agus gheibh sinn a-mach an do chòrd no nach do chòrd na leabhraichean sin riutha.

Anna Macleod is in conversation with two guests each week about their favourite books, and also finds out more about their lives.

In this episode, well-known broadcaster Gilleasbuig Ferguson discusses the book which highlights his personal connections with Canada, and also explains why a special copy of an old dictionary means so much to him. When Catriona MacRae isn't busy working as a GP, her favourite reading takes her to places as far apart as Majorca and Afghanistan. She also talks about how reading is an important family activity and how a favourite book was recommended to her by her daughter.

As well as discussing their favourite books, each guest has chosen one for the other to read, and we'll find out in the programme if they enjoyed it or not!
