The Collector, The Magus, and The French Lieutenant's Woman brought their author John Fowles world-wide acclaim.
Robert Robinson went to Fowles's home in Lyme Regis to talk to him about his new collection of short stories The Ebony Tower.
Also, Benny Green reviews two new biographies of the legendary 1920s jazz cornetist Bix Beiderbecke; and there's a tribute to J. B. Morton whose 50 years as ' Beachcomber ' are celebrated by a new collection of his work.
