Joining Charles Adrian at the FARM:shop in Dalston for the 60th Second Hand Book Factory is actress Liz Chan. They have a calm and quiet talk and exchange memories in different forms.

Disclaimer: Having asked his guest to turn off her phone, Charles Adrian failed to turn off his; he apologises, therefore, for a little electronic interference towards the beginning of this recording. He also apologises for the occasional sound of chewing as he eats some rather nice lemon drizzle cake.

The Quest For Christa T. by Christa Wolf is also discussed in Page One 177.
