Meanjin's new editor, Sophie Cunningham

From contributor to editor -- Sophie Cunningham is the new editor of the literary magazine Meanjin. She hasn't started in the job yet, but how is she going to put her mark on this magazine that's been around since 1940? She's taking over from Ian Britain.

She's had many years in publishing; first at McPhee Gribble/Penguin then, from 1994 until 2003, at Allen & Unwin. She's also been at Lonely Planet and is a freelance writer. Her first novel Geography came out in 2004 and her second book, Bird, is coming out later this year.

Sophie Cunningham joins Ramona Koval on The Book Show.
