About this listen
‘Enid’s hands are always kept busy caring for other people…’
This week, Sally continues her theme of developing characters from objects by presenting a portrait of Enid Bagot, a young woman used to working with her hands, who will feature in Sally’s forthcoming imagined biography, provisionally titled Mrs Parnell. Listen for a reflection on the routines and rhythms of life and work, interspersed with the moments from Sally’s own life that provide her inspiration.
The image of the cat by Edward Lear that Sally refers to can be viewed here.
The wonderful piano music in the opening section is ‘Tuesday’, by Paul Seba. More on Paul and his work can be found here.
This episode was edited and produced by James Bowen.
Special thanks to Andrew Smith, Violet Henderson, Kris Dyer, and Maeve Magnus.
