Watch beloved humourist Kathy Lette as she returns with another riotously entertaining tale with host Elizabeth McCarthy.
Originally presented on Wednesday 25th March 2026 by The Wheeler Centre.
Full of laugh-out-loud humour and flashes of devastating pathos, Kathy Lette’s The Sisterhood Rules is a romp through secrets, scandal and the unbreakable – if occasionally exasperated – bonds of sisterhood.
Twin sisters Isabel and Verity have always been inseparable – until Verity has an affair with Izzy's husband, leaving them hopelessly estranged. But when their mother goes missing, Verity and Izzy are forced to reunite to find her. From there, the problems only get bigger: their mother has a new younger lover and where there's a will … he'd clearly like to be in it. Can the sisters stop their mother from making a truly terrible mistake? And, while they’re at it, can they salvage their own relationship from the rubble?
Join Lette with host Elizabeth McCarthy as she discusses this big-hearted, cheeky and deeply relatable novel, shares what it’s like to be professionally funny and reflects on her extraordinary career to date.
