Summer Reading and Benjamin Wood

Available for over a year

Chris Power talks to Benjamin Wood about his novel The Young Accomplice. Set in 1952 the novel explores how Frank Lloyd Wright’s modernist vision inspired a married couple to set up their own architectural office in rural Surrey, where they offer a creative education and opportunity to orphaned siblings fresh out of borstal. And critics Johanna Thomas -Corr and Max Liu join Chris to discuss their richly varied recommendations for summer reading.
