Sunday Best: A Is for Absent

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

A view from the sickbed of childhood. Dons spent a year in bed in the 1940s, while Gerald lay awake in the early hours waiting forthe first blackbird to sing. These experiences marked them for life. Their reflections are set against those of Jodie's today- a nine-year-old living through a childhood of hospital appointments with grace and perception.
Producers Sara Conkey , Stephen Douds , Lindsay Leonard and Hugh Levinson
