Through one of those strange coincidences that make up life I recently retweeted a post from a Jean Rhys twitter account. This was spotted by one of the producers of The Book Show, on RTE Radio 1, and I was asked to participate in a piece they were putting together on Jean Rhys and her most famous novel, Wide Sargasso Sea.
It was really interesting to be a small part of the show, and if nothing else it’s nice to be referred to as ‘writer Colm O’Shea’ on the national airwaves.
You can listen here, the Jean Rhys segment begins at around the 26 minute part, though do listen to the full show.
