Richard Griffiths, Alison Steadman, and Peter Woodthorpe star in this BBC Radio 4 version of Alan Bennett's acclaimed comedy/drama stage play. Present-day Kafka aficionado Sydney and his wife, Linda, are visited by the long-dead Kafka and his friend Max Brod (with whom Kafka had left instructions for all his works to be burned; instructions which Brod chose to ignore). As we spend time with the unusual party, it becomes clear that Kafka's wish was for anonymity, and also that he had serious issues with his father. When his parent turns up, he is in possession of a very personal secret relating to his son, one which Kafka is terrified he will disclose.

After a childhood of poverty and petty crime in the slums of London, William Thornhill is sentenced in 1806 to be transported to New South Wales for the term of his natural life. With his wife, Sal, and children in tow, he arrives in a harsh land that feels at first like a death sentence.

But, as uninhabited as the island appears, Australia is full of native people who also claim the land as their own. A best seller in Australia, The Secret River is the dramatic story of Grenville's ancestors, who wrested a new life from the alien terrain of Australia and its native people.
