This week we're joined for the second time by Byzantium expert Howard Butcher. Howard reviews some of the things he's learnt while learning new languages, while podcast host, Shirley Halse, talks about the 941 page, late 18th century novel Cecilia by Frances Burney.
You can't follow Howard online because "like the Romans" he eschews social media but luckily you CAN find Alt Book Club on fb (@altbookclub) for news about comedy nights and writing workshops.
