from Page One Hosted by Charles Adrian
During a very hot spell in West London, with a glass of water at his side and a towel draped over his shoulder, Charles Adrian revisits the last three books given to him by guests during the second season of the podcast. More information and a transcript of this episode is at http://www.pageonepodcast.com/.

Also mentioned in this episode is Les Caves Du Vatican by André Gide. The Guardian has a nicely out-dated article from 2014 about subtweeting and vaguebooking that entirely backs up Charles Adrian's understanding of those terms: https://www.theguardian.com/technology/blog/2014/jul/23/subtweeting-what-is-it-and-how-to-do-it-well Episode image is a detail from a photo by Charles Adrian.
