On Holding Forth

A Point of View - Podcast tekijän mukaan BBC Radio 4 - Perjantaisin

"There's one thing I can't bear", writes Rebecca Stott, "and that's being talked AT". Having grown up in a separatist fundamentalist Christian sect called the Exclusive Brethren, she says she's probably rather uniquely sensitised to this. She listened to her father and grandfather holding forth for hours - "3000 hours of male monologues before I was six" she reckons! Rebecca reflects on the art of good conversation.
