Episode 204

17 minutes

Up for discussion on this week’s book review we have ‘A Wild Swan: and Other Tales’, Michael Cunningham’s adaptation of classic fairy tales for an older audience; ‘Beyond Belief: Racist, Sexist, Rude, Crude and Dishonest, The Golden Age of Madison Avenue’ by Charles Saatchi, which delves into the murky world of advertising in the ‘Mad Men’ era; and we end with a look at erotic fiction. Arifa Akbar, literary editor at ‘The Independent’ and Monocle’s Matt Alagiah take up the conversation.
