43. Louise Doughty: On This Spot Fell One Tear of Love – LIVE STREAMED
After the death of both her parents, whilst clearing out the family home, novelist Louise Doughty made a startling discovery. Inside a black suitcase, she stumbled upon a treasure trove of letters that revealed the origins of her parents' love affair. In her first memoir, Doughty introduces us to two ardent, eloquent, hopeful young people full of spirit and determination; people she had simply known as Mum and Dad. On This Spot Fell One Tear of Love is a portrait of grief and loss and family, but most of all, it's a love story.
