Whew. What a scorcher! And the weather's hot too. Slip on your shades, and listen to our interview with the incredibly talented Fiona Sampson, about her subtly structured collection Come Down, and wander with her into organic and resonant evocations of nature infused with memories and undermined by loss.
And instead of hunching over their computer screens, Robin and Peter venture off to Beachy Head to gaze down at the English Channel and the chalk cliffs of the Sussex coast. There, in the heatwave heat, they muse on some of the highlights of the second season and sip cold beer as a bazillion flying ants issue from the cracked earth.
Fiona's new book, Starlight Wood - Walking Back to the Romantic Countryside, is due out in September.
