Manage episode 448210582 series 3382925
This Kingdom of Dust by David Dyer. In 1969 Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin walked on the moon and were then safely returned to Earth. In an alternative scenario, what if the lunar landing module failed and they couldn’t get back? It’s a compelling premise, told in three voices – that of Buzz on the moon, his wife Joan back in a US suburb surrounded by other astronauts’ wives waiting for news of her husband, and Aquarius, a journalist hired to write the story of the moon landing who got a lot more than he bargained for.
What I Ate in One Year by Stanley Tucci. The famous author and dedicated gourmet kept a record of his whereabouts and activities throughout 2023, including almost everything he ate. He’s selflessly dedicated to finding great food and takes enormous pleasure in thinking about, planning and then devouring his next meal. It’s a charming, interesting and easy to read diary – and he’s impressive in his commitment!
