Bedside Reading
Where the Crawdads Sing
Delia Owens' 2018 coming of age novel Where the Crawdads Sing has sold an incredible 18 million copies and was released as a film in 2022. I'm joined this week by GP Rosemary Hickman to discuss ACEs, being transported to another world, illiteracy, secrets and so much more.
If you've not already read the novel it would be a great pick for a summer holiday read. The film adaptation is utterly beautiful too.
