The news today is deeply depressing. If you want to turn it off I recommend listening to my radio play at 2:15pm. It’ll be on BBC Sounds after that. X Love and solidarity to all.
My new radio play Margaret White & the Alcoran of Mahomet tells the story of the first publication of the Quran in English (in 1649). It's on Wednesday at 2.15pm Radio 4 then on BBC sounds -the cast are wonderful. Pls do listen if you can - I am very proud of this one. www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...
