A Good Read - Juliet Barker and John O'Farrell
Download Juliet Barker and John O'Farrell
Satirical writer John O'Farrell and historian Juliet Barker talk to Harriett Gilbert about their favourite books - all of which use an unusual blend of fact and fiction.
They evoke the lives of the Brontes, the worst civilian disaster of World War II and the British mandate in Palestine.
