A Good Read: Robert `Judge" Rinder & Stella Duffy

Series 507, episode 2

Barrister Robert Rinder and novelist Stella Duffy talk to Harriett Gilbert about the books that matter deeply to them. Robert loves Jessica Mitford's Hons and Rebels so much that he says he couldn't be friends with anyone who didn't. Stella shares her thoughts about facing mortality with Staring at the Sun: Overcoming the Dread of Death by Irvin D Yalom. Harriett introduces the pair to what she thinks is a dark comedy - A Matter of Death and Life by Andrey Kurkov, set in Kiev. However, there is some dispute over its comedic value
