Beryl Bainbridge, Celia Dale, critical and charitable reading – welcome to episode 123!
In the first half of the episode we use a suggestion from Susannah – do we read charitably or critically? In the second half we compare too rather dark novels – Sheep’s Clothing by Celia Dale and Harriet Said… by Beryl Bainbridge.
