About this listen
The Bottle Factory Outing follows Freda and Brenda, who work together in an Italian-run wine-bottling factory. A work outing becomes a pivotal moment that promises different experiences for each woman: excitement for Freda and apprehension for Brenda. The intense emotions of that chilly day of freedom fundamentally alter their lives, ensuring nothing will return to its previous state.
Inspired by author Beryl Bainbridge's personal experiences working at a London wine-factory in the 1970s, the novel deeply explores themes of friendship and consent, rendering the narrative remarkably timely and relevant.
