Would be interesting to compare this to the actual book (this was a two part radio program). Very interesting to see how the role of the Children changes from part 1 (the women are distressed, the men can’t much be bothered) to part 2 (for the most part the women still love their children while the men want them to die). Really enjoyed how much the dialogue would split off in gendered pairs for a comparison of how everyone discussed what was happening.
