1. Tin Man & Tales of The City

Welcome to Book Chat! A new monthly books podcast hosted by Pandora Sykes and Bobby Palmer, which does what it says on the tin: we each bring one book, and we chat. Our one rule? The books have to be more than 2 years old. For our inaugural episode, Bobby has chosen Tin Man by Sarah Winman, and Pandora has chosen Tales of the City, by Armistead Maupin. So join us for a meaty book chat and beware for those who have not read the books: there will be spoilers. Other books mentioned:The Happy Couple by Naoise DolanThe Arrest by Jonathan LethemNormal People by Sally RooneyGrief is the Thing With Feathers by Max PorterTomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow by Gabrielle ZevinA Man Called Ove by Fredrick BackmanWhen God Was A Rabbit and Still Life by Sarah WinmanFurther Tales of The City, Babycakes and Michael Tolliver Lives, by Armistead MaupinClip attributions:Sarah Winman on Writer’s Bone podcast, 2018Armistead Maupin on Radio 4's Desert Island Discs, 2007Ian McKellan reads Letter to Mama for Letters Live, 2017You can get in touch with us at [email protected] by Joel Grove and production by Pandora Sykes.
