description: These six radio monologues are written by Lynne Truss, author of the phenomenal bestsellers Eats, Shoots &amp; Leaves and Talk to the Hand. In the tradition of Alan Bennett's Talking Heads come Lynne Truss' male monologues: six tales of fidelity, pride, friendship, and family from the classic BBC Radio series. Six men have reached a certain age, their forty–something years, and each has a very different and sometimes surprising story to tell, from the brother who receives an unexpected letter to a compulsive philanderer and a news photographer sent on on an unusual assignment. All are funny, touching, and as beautifully observed as would be expected from the author of the phenomenal bestsellers Eats, Shoots &amp; Leaves and Talk to the Hand. Starring Douglas Hodge, Robert Glenister, Peter Capaldi, Stephen Tompkinson, Simon Russell Beale, and Stuart Milligan. Volume Two features the stories 'The Father', 'The Son', 'The Husband', 'The Pedant', 'The Brother', and 'The Married Man'.
