Episode Audiobooks with Juliet Stevenson

0:00 55:41

This week Sara and Cariad are joined for a very special episode all about audiobooks by the queen of audio narration - BAFTA nominated and Olivier award winning actress, Juliet Stevenson.

In this episode they discuss Elizabeth Gaskell, kids books, bully directors, José Saramago, acting and Geordie accents.

The Speakies British Audio Awards take place on the 24th November at the Royal Opera House.

We’ve partnered with the Best Audiobook: Fiction category. There are some brilliant audiobooks nominated in that category including Intermezzo by Sally Rooney, read by Éanna Hardwicke. Why not go back and listen to our episode on Intermezzo where we talked to the brilliant Aisling Bea.

Juliet is also nominated for the Best Audiobook: Non-Fiction category for her brilliant narration of Persian Pictures by Gertrude Bell.

Thank you for reading with us. We like reading with you!
