Page One, Vol. 25

For this sixteenth second-hand book factory, Charles Adrian is joined by literary editor Michael Caines, whose alter-ego is singer and songwriter Stephen M Caines of Spirit Of Play and other bands. They talk about the joy of a concise writer, of the recent additions shelf and of books as objects. (The book that they don’t talk about, by the way, is the very heavy Collected Stories by Vladimir Nabokov; it has lots of wonderful things in, but there was no time.)

Books included in this show are:
'The Abbess Of Crewe' by Muriel Spark
'Lucky Jim' by Kingsley Amis
'Books As History' by David Pearson
