Broadcaster Sophie Raworth joins Gaby Huddart on The Joy of Books to share the stories that have made her laugh, helped her through loss and kept her turning the pages — even on a 20-mile run.
From childhood memories of her father reading The Hobbit to the treasured books her grandmother gave her, Sophie reflects on a lifelong love of reading. She reveals why Lessons in Chemistry made her laugh out loud, how Lonesome Dove sparked an unexpected obsession with cowboys, and why When the Cranes Fly South moved her so deeply after her father’s death.
Plus, Sophie discusses her debut memoir, Running on Air, and the surprising connections between running marathons, presenting the news and finding the confidence to keep going. Expect heartfelt recommendations, much-loved childhood poetry and a story about diving with a young Jason Statham.
The Joy of Books with Gaby Huddart is a Pixiu Podcast for The National Literacy Trust.
