The Evening Read-In: It’s a bug’s life…
What's the worst part of being suddenly turned into a massive bug? Taking twice as long to get up in the morning? Discovering a taste for rotting vegetables and sour sauce? Frightening everyone you come into contact with and being shunned by your family?
Having antennae instead of hands would also mean you wouldn't be able to log on and listen to The Evening Read-In, which would only add to your woes. Who would have a bug's life?
Luckily (unless you've had a Gregor-like experience over night) you can join us right here for Part 4 of The Metamorphosis tomorrow evening at 9pm - and between now and then you've got plenty of time to catch up with the story from the beginning.
