麻豆约拍

Sally Bayley recalls how a strange home life made her bond with characters from books.

This is especially in the pages of Jane Eyre and anything with Miss Marple in it, because she has to turn detective to find out what happened to Baby David. And to escape the clutches of Auntie Di, mum's sister. And finally, where is the girl in the title of her account to be found?

Sally's podcast is called A Reading Life, A Writing Life.

Omnibus of five parts abridged in five parts by Katrin Williams.
