A pre-valentine show but no romantic books to review, we have some valentine ditties & a poem though.
Ro Bennett & Maggie Perkovich are my guests this week and Ro had a book with a valentine theme as it weaves around the Shakespearean tragedy 'Romeo & Juliet' (Juliet by Ann Fortier). The only association with her second book is the first name of the character - 'Valentino' - Heartbreaking & staggering about human endurance (What is the What by Dave Eggers). Maggies books are about human endurance too (Edith Cavell by Diana Souhami and Blood & Sand by the BBC war correspondent Frank Gardner).
This is the last show for 3 weeks as I am off on my hols to Kenya................
