About Reading Between The Lines – the story podcast from The People’s Friend
Each episode, we’ll take a look back through over 150 years of fabulous fiction in “The People’s Friend” to pick out a story to read — and then we’ll get together for a wee chat about it. Make yourself a cup of tea, pull up a chair, and come join us.
In our final episode of the season, "St. Valentine's Violets" by Ida May, first published in February 1930, the team finally get to the bottom of the Ida May mystery from episode 6. And we ask the question, "meddling mums" or "mother knows best"?!
