In This Episode
In this week’s Book Club podcast my guest is the writer Madeleine Bunting, whose new book is The Seaside: England’s Love Affair. She tells me how the great seaside resorts came into their 19th century pomp, how abrupt was their mid-century decline, and of the terrible desolation that has succeeded the idyll of donkey rides, ices and fish and chips.
