Lucy Worsley, Barbara Stocking


Listen Later

Chief Executive of Oxfam Barbara Stocking, and historian Lucy Worsley discuss their favourite paperbacks with Harriett Gilbert.

Barbara's choice is Antonia Fraser's intimate portrait of her relationship with Harold Pinter: Must You Go.

Harriett's choice is the seedy crime thriller that gave us the malevolent character Pinkie: Brighton Rock by Graham Greene.

Producer: Toby Field.
