On a winter's night in 1974, a crime took place that would obsess the nation.

It was an extraordinary news story.

The story of an aristocrat, Lord Lucan, who's said to have killed the family Nanny,

mistaking her for his wife, then somehow just disappeared.

One of the great mysteries in English criminal history. We're still looking for

Leukin. It's honestly one of the most powerful stories of my lifetime. I'm Alex von

Tunselman. This is The Lucan Obsession. Listen on BBC Sounds. BBC Sounds, music, radio, podcasts.

Hello, I'm Harriet Gilbert.

Thank you for downloading a good read, the podcasts,

where two guests and I recommend books we love and describe why we love them.

We don't always see eye to eye, but I hope you'll find some great reading suggestions here.

Hello, today Jean Rees in Paris, a gorilla in the Blitz, and the story of a young man's

heart. With me to introduce their goodread are first the poet, performer and broadcaster,

Salina Godin. Among Salina's more recent publications are the childhood memoir Springfield Road,

the poetry collection pessimism is for

lightweights, and a debut novel, Mrs. Death, Mrs. Death, a title that makes complete sense

if you see it written down. With Selena is the children's author and illustrator Rob Bidolph,

whose books include Peanut Jones and the Illustrated City, blown away and odd dog out.

At the start of the COVID pandemic, Rob launched a series of highly successful online art classes,

hashtag Draw with Rob, in which tens of thousands of families around the world took part.

Selina Godin, would you start us off?

What are you recommending as a good read?
