Live Alone and Like It

on BBC Radio 4 FM

By Marjorie Hillis.
Mary Cutler's witty and imaginative five-part dramatisation of the 1935 bestseller.
It's the story of Marjorie, who's single and writing the book with the assistance of Sylvia, whose husband died in the war, and Judith, who is committed to the women's movement. They have to cope with the interference of Frank, who dotes on Marjorie and has hopes for happiness; after all, he's got money already. Part 1.
(Repeat of 10.45am)
