Episode Synopsis
During a very hot spell in West London, with a glass of water at his side and a towel draped over his shoulder, Charles Adrian revisits the last three books given to him by guests during the second season of the podcast. More information and a transcript of this episode is at http://www.pageonepodcast.com/.
