Caroline Graham
from My Life In Books with Red Szell · host Accessible Media Inc.
Join writer, broadcaster and blind adventurer Széll for the latest episode of AMI-audio’s My Life in Books. Each fortnight, Red invites you to join him in conversation with a renowned author about their work and the books that inspired them to write. Caroline Graham has been dubbed, "Simply the best detective writer since Agatha Christie," and, like Poirot or Miss Marple, she has found a truly global audience through the TV adaptation of her novels. The first five episodes of Midsomer Murders were adapted from Caroline’s Chief Inspector Barnaby novels, and are laced with that same compelling blend of rural English whimsy and macabre malevolence. However, the constraints of adapting a novel into a screenplay did deprive us of Caroline’s flair for writing psychological pen portraits of her characters, and some of the darker aspects of her plots. But now, audiobook fans can enjoy the original stories in all their unabridged brilliance through new recordings of all seven Chief Inspector Barnaby mysteries, with Midsomer Murders actor John Hopkins narrating them. Join Caroline, her son David, and Red for a glimpse behind the scenes of the series that made Midsomer the murder capital of the English shires!
