Rachel Seiffert has been listed as one of the Best of Young British Novelists in 2003 and following the success of her novel The Dark Room, she's written a new collection of short stories called Field Study.
Rachel Seiffert joins Sheila to talk about why she thinks there's a macho theory that bigger and heavier books are better, which leaves the short story under-rated.
Field Study by Rachel Seiffert is published by Heinemann ISBN 0434011851
