S02E07 - CONVERSATIONS WITH LOUISA TREGER - MUD BETWEEN YOUR TOES - 05 AUGUST 2020

In Series 02 Episode 07 of https://mudbetweenyourtoes.podbean.com/ CONVERSATIONS WITH LOUISA TREGER. Louisa was a classical violinist until she turned her hand to literature. Her debut novel, The Lodger, was widely acclaimed, and she followed it up with The Dragon Lady, based on the life of Lady Virginia (Ginie) Courtauld – no stranger to Zimbabweans who grew up in the Eastern highlands. The book’s title comes from a nickname referencing the snake tattoo that wound up one of Lady Courtaulds’ leg.
