17. Philippa Perry

This week we're heading to North London to meet the author, broadcaster, journalist and psychotherapist Philippa Perry. As we met in Philippa's kitchen, it seemed only fair that she baked us a delicious vegetable pie as a treat. In between furtive strokes of Kevin the cat, we talked about falling out of love with Jane Austen, holiday reading, family dramas and wrangling with a Kindle.
