Book Club Meets: Rekindling intimacy in marriage, with Josie Lloyd and Emlyn Rees
Про цей епізод
<p>Adam and Jules have been married for 25 years and are stuck in a bit of a rut. Adam stumbles across some old mixtapes he and Jules made for each other when they were young and falling in love, and when they play them... they get to travel back in time to different moments in their relationship. Will remembering the passion they used to have get the future of their relationship back on track, or will it just spark absolute chaos?</p><br><p>You & Me, You & Me, You & Me was our Happy Place Book Club pick for April. In this chat with Fearne, authors Josie Lloyd and Emlyn Rees – themselves a married couple – explain why they wanted to explore rekindling intimacy in the empty nest phase, and reveal how they write together on a practical level.</p><br><p>What do you reckon, if you could go back in time to tweak some of the decisions you’d made – would you? Maybe it would make you even more grateful for the happiness you have now...</p><br><p>Thank you to Vintage Digital for the use of the You & Me and You & Me and You & Me audiobook, narrated by Rory Kinnear and Sally Phillips.</p><br><p>If you liked this episode of Happy Place, you might also like:</p><br><p><a href="https://pod.fo/e/39d084" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Book Club Meets: Emma Gannon</a></p><br><p><a href="https://pod.fo/e/388539" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Book Club Meets: Maggie O’Farrell</a></p><br><p><a href="https://pod.fo/e/37108f" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Book Club Meets: Nussaibah Younis</a></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
