Hello everybody and welcome to the book club, a new podcast from Gollhanger, hosted by me, Dominic

Sambrook. And me, Tabitha Syrod. As some of you may know, I've been Dominic's producer on The Rest

's History and we even did a mini-series last year about all things books. And since we enjoyed that

so much, we have decided to roll it out as its own show.

So it'll be coming out every Tuesday.

We'll be doing a different book each time and digging into all the stories behind them.

And we are going to be talking about the historical contexts behind some of the greatest and most famous books of all time.

We're going to be digging into the remarkable people behind them,

the unexpected stories behind the stories, and also unraveling the plot of each book a bit and

delving into the depths of the story. Now, you don't have to have read the books to listen to the

show, but we hope that by the end of each episode, you will be able to pretend to people that you've

read them. That is the key thing.

And either way, whether you read them or not, we hope that you'll learn lots of fascinating

facts, you'll do lots of great stories, and maybe Tabby the odd laugh. We will be looking at

thrilling Gothic bodice rippers like Wuthering Heights and Frankenstein, as well as iconic

stories like The Great Gatsby or Little Women.

And then also some more modern stuff.

So Game of Thrones, normal people, The Hunger Games, Hamlet, all manner of exciting stories.

So please join us on our journey into all things books, wherever you get your podcasts.

Just search for The Book Club every Tuesday and hopefully we will see you there.
