This three CD compilation forms part of the British Library's series of documentary recordings by English-language authors and playwrights. 30 writers are represented, talking about their lives and work. The recordings derive primarily from BBC broadcasts, the earliest of them dating from the 1930s, and include historic recordings of the first generation of writers whose voices survive through to senior figures of the present day. The majority of the recordings have not been published before. Tracks include the sole remaining recordings of Virginia Woolf and Arthur Conan Doyle, P G Wodehouse talking about Jeeves and Wooster', Ian Fleming's Desert Island Discs' appearance and Harold Pinter in conversation with Kenneth Tynan.
