Alice Lowe will be reading BBC Radio 4’s next Book at Bedtime, starting Monday 29th August.

Every night at 10.45pm from Monday 29th August, Alice will be treating us to a short section of Paradise Lodge by Nina Stibbe. It’s a coming-of-age novel about a 15-year-old who takes a job at a nursing home for the elderly and soon finds herself getting very involved.

The reading of Paradise Lodge will be split into ten parts, and the first three episodes are already available on BBC iPlayer Radio.

It’s fair to say that Alice is very busy at the moment, as while her Book at Bedtime airs on Radio 4, her new film Prevenge will be opening Venice International Film Critics Week.
