A Good Read: Edwina Currie and Nicholas Le Prevost

Ouvir no aplicativo
Author and former MP Edwina Currie and actor Nicholas Le Prevost talk about books they love with Harriett Gilbert.
Edwina Currie's choice is An Awfully Big Adventure, by Beryl Bainbridge, a tale of backstage intrigue and loss of innocence in a Liverpool theatre in 1950.
The Priory by Dorothy Whipple is Nicholas Le Prevost's pick. This soap-opera- like story of a crumbling manor house and its eccentric inhabitants, struggling with the fallout of the depression, was written under the looming shadow of World War II.
Harriett Gilbert takes us to Iran for her choice of A Good Read: Reading Lolita in Tehran by Azar Nafisi. A memoir which melds the politics of post-revolution Iran with unusual perspectives on western literary classics
Presenter: Harriett Gilbert
