Episode: Ep37: Literary Friction - Friendship With Dolly Alderton

Good friends are hard to beat, and this month's show is dedicated to those bonds that are often the deepest and most enduring in our lives. Our guest, author and journalist Dolly Alderton, writes wonderfully about friendship. Her first book, Everything I Know About Love is a series of essays and other vignettes about - amongst other things - growing up in London, disastrous dates and parties, and love between friends. So join us as we talk about great literary friendships, from Lila and Elena in Elena Ferrante’s Neapolitan novels to Sam and Frodo in Lord of the Rings.
