Joanna Scanlan and Sabine Durrant
The discussion takes us from 60s America with Tom Wolfe to 80s Ireland with Clare Keegan via Regency England with Georgette Heyer.
BAFTA winning actor Joanna Scanlan champions The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test, Tom Wolfe's tale of Ken Kesey, the Merry Pranksters and US counter culture. Writer Sabine Durrant's favourite is Small Things Like These by Claire Keegan, a simple but powerful story of a man's moral predicament in a small Irish community. Harriett enjoys Georgette Heyer's romance set in 1816, The Grand Sophy.
