John Fowles, Tracy Chevalier, and eating in books – Lyme and limes, if you will!

Sorry for a bit of a delay (because I had to read two quite long books) – and advance apologies for the delay before our next episode, as Rachel moves house and completes her dissertation. Thanks for bearing with us! In this episode, we use a recommendation from my friend Rachel (a different one) and ask about characters and food. In the second half, we compare John Fowles’ The French Lieutenant’s Woman with Tracy Chevalier’s Remarkable Creatures. Do let us know your thoughts on either!
