The Oxford Book Club - Lucy Atkins - 12th April 2016
David Prever is joined by the novelist and Sunday Times book critic Lucy Atkins. They talk about the shortlist for the 2016 Baileys Women's Prize for Fiction. And, to tie-in with the Charlotte Bronte bicentennial, Lucy reviews Claire Harman's biography called "Charlotte Bronte: A Life" - and Tracy Chevalier's "Reader, I Married Him" - a collection of short stories inspired by that famous line from Jane Eyre. Lucy also recommends the new Le Carresque thriller "A Dying Breed" by Peter Hanington.
