Esther Freud on Mr Mac and Me
Presented by Mariella Frostrup. Novelist Esther Freud talks about her new book Mr Mac and Me, inspired by the time architect Charles Rennie Mackintosh spent in Suffolk.
Novelist Esther Freud talks about her latest, Mr Mac and Me, inspired by the time architect Charles Rennie Mackintosh spent in Suffolk. Howard Jacobson talks about the book that he would never lend, not least because he can't find it at the moment and the changing face of book launches: how the crowded market has inspired publicists to think of new ways to draw attention to new books.
