Just the soft centres… Selected for audio

Getting up close and personal to small things, a  humorous journey from Birmingham in the 80’s, to the Northern Isles, to Liverpool’s Walker Art Gallery, with a stop-off en route to eavesdrop on a crazy creative writing group…These stories first appeared in Art My Eye and Other Stories, which probes the thought that we are defined by the things that we imagine, as much as by the things we do.

Meet the woman whose Christmas shopping trip leads to a brush with the law, the single mum who’s told her boy isn’t like the other little boys, the frantic would-be writer in search of a plot, and the gallery attendant who’s learnt a thing or two about art.

Contains Shirley Carter’s Christmas Cracker, The Burrawick Trees, May Contain Nuts, and Art My Eye.

Length 95 mins

Extremely enjoyable, though provoking and so well written...
