“My books? They drive my wife crazy!”

Sean Coyle

Available for 17 days

“Hi Sean,” Anne in Belfast says. “Thank you for another great week. I hope you have a great weekend and maybe finish reading one of your unfinished books!” Sean has been talking about books on the BBC Radio Foyle Facebook page. He’s half way through quite a few at the moment. One of them, on the siege of Stalingrad, he began in 1998. He hasn’t given up. “Yes,” Sean says. “It drives my wife crazy.” With music from The Equals, Manfred Mann, Carlene Carter, and more.
