On Monday this week I was invited to join the wonderful Claire Collison (artist, poet, writer) in conversation, recorded at BBC Cambridgeshire by the brilliant Kerry Devine as part of the Listening Project by BBC Radio4 & the British Library.
Two single breasted women talking about asymmetry, shifting norms, friendship and all things breast…
Claire contacted me at bbookproject earlier this year as she felt we were kindred spirits. We first met at 5th Feb, which we later realised is the Day of St Agatha , the patron saint of breastcancer patients, who lost her breasts as a torture punishment for refusing to marry this Roman prefect.
Claire and I haven’t stopped talking since. Our recorded conversation will be broadcast early 2020, as Claire noted, a very symmetrical year.
