Welcome to the episode two of The Queen's Reading Room podcast.  The Queen's Reading Room podcast is a place for book lovers - and those who wish they loved literature a little more - to be inspired by the bookish confessions of global literary heroes. Authors from all over the world have shared their own literary treasures with us; revealing their favourite writers, most treasured books and earliest reading memories.  This week, The Queen’s Reading Room was invited into the book-lined home of national treasure Dame Joanna Lumley. Dame Joanna regales us with stories about her own extraordinary book collection, divulges her favourite writers and explains to us why her life would be so different if it weren’t for books. Discover the joy of reading with The Queens Reading Room podcast, available weekly on all podcast platforms.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
