In Episode Six, Phil & Natalie welcome to BestSellers, Christy Lefteri. The Beekeeper of Aleppo has already been an International No.1 Best Seller and details the struggle that Nuri and his wife Afra endure as they evacuate war torn Syria and seek to join Nuri's cousin who's already made it to safety in the United Kingdom. The bees also play a special role in this heartwarming story of hope over adversity and you can hear Christy explain how she interviewed those seeking Asylum for this fictional tale; how she met a beekeeper and was surrounded by bees, with no protective kit on, as part of the research for this story, and how this book is a tribute to her own family who moved to London in the 70s, to escape a threat to their lives.
