Show Notes

It’s a joy to spend time with famed English horticulturalist Monty Don as he watches wildlife, tends to his garden, and generally appreciates the natural world. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Robin Whitten discuss Monty’s smooth narration of his year in the garden, giving listeners chronological observations of his time outdoors in Wales. Don, who received an O.B.E. for service to Great Britain, is the lead presenter of the BBC series “Gardeners’ World” and fans of that show will find much to love in the audiobook. Consisting of observations and short essays on everything from moles to primroses to wrens, this audiobook is one to cherish and gift.

Support for Behind the Mic comes from Naxos AudioBooks. The Great Fire of London began in a bakery in Pudding Lane on September 2nd. After viewing the fire from the Tower of London, Samuel Pepys recorded in his diary "It made me weep to see it." THE DIARY OF SAMUEL PEPYS 1-3 is a Naxos AudioBooks world-premiere recording of the diary in its entirety. From the discovery of a new public toilet to the restoration of King Charles II, the terrible Plague of 1665 and followed by the Great Fire of London, Pepys wrote down what he saw. Narrator Leighton Pugh "keeps it all lively. David Timson ably reads the historical introductions to each year."
