A month ly journey throught the literatures of Europe.
2: France. The writer Julian Evans continues his pilgrimage along the developing road of the European novel, and focuses on the early 18th century
French novelist Lesage. The picaresque adventures of his hero Gil Bias were translated into English by Tobias Smollett , and Julian traces both of their interconnected literary lives in locations from Nice to Paris. Their influence on such successors as Fielding in England and Voltaire in France are reflected upon by the French writers of today, who also discuss their own work and its connection, or not, with their literary heritage, Producer Tom Alban
