Hi Bernard,
I have just serendipitously come across a 2009 Bookclub interview with you on Spotify.
The broadcast was certainly informative and entertaining, and it took me back to the time I first discovered The Last Kingdom – I remember being so taken with the feeling of ‘Thank God’ this story has legs. It was at the time, a rather unfashionable period of English history to be writing about, and It seemed to me that I was living in a bubble liking that sort of stuf. Now, a feeling of gesibsumnes abounds when I revisit the work – so thanks for this.
Best wishes,
Steve
