This show was recorded for the bookshow as showhost away.
Welcome to the bookshow on radio scilly 107.9fm. My guests today are a couple of voices from the past – Lesley Jones and Linda Wornes. Welcome back ladies so glad to have you with us again, long time no hear. Tell every one it s not because you don’t like doing the show but because you can’t read enough to keep up with it..! Got a few interesting books coming up The Angel's Game by Carlos Ruiz Zafon and Have a Nice Day by Justin Webb. 'The Poisonwood Bible' and 'Prodigal Summer', both by Barbara Kingsolver.
Interesting title, Linda, Poisonwood Bible but after having read the blurb I have to say that if you really want to know about the Congo then read ‘Tim Butchers Blood River A Journey to Africa’s Broken Heart’.
As for Prodigal Summer, well after reding this reviewers comments: 'I adore this book and have recommended it with evangelical zeal to many friends', I can hear the preacher starting to get in a frenzy and his congregation starting to clap – yes Lord!!!
Mixed reviews for Angels Game: Disappointing, I loved Shadow of the Wind and wondered if The Angel's Game could live up top it - it didn't.
Have a Nice Day, (say it in that American accent). Americans & america is exactly what the book is about. But Lesley thinks a slightly biased cross section.
