Marked as explicit because of strong language and discussion of sex
Having taken a short change is as good as a holiday, Charles Adrian returns to his wooden IKEA steps to talk about the first three books given to him by guests on the third season of the podcast.
More information and a transcript of this episode is at http://www.pageonepodcast.com/.
Correction: The word Charles Adrian was looking for in relation to the cover of The Clown by Heinrich Böll is ‘monochrome’. Also, it is, of course, Heinrich Böll who won the Nobel Prize in 1972 not this particular novel.

Correction: In 1993, when Nicholson’s London Mini Atlas was published, the East London line ran to Shoreditch at “Peak hours and Sunday mornings”. Also, Charles Adrian should have pointed out that Aldwych station, now disused, was still possible to reach on the Piccadilly line from Holborn at “Peak hours only”.
