S4 E5 Original Sin: Spark ‘The Bachelors’ (1960)

An entertaining and elegant look at singledom in London that challenged censor’s ideas on sex and conception.

The novel opens with the single lads doing their shopping – the cover captures Spark’s wit

S3 Bonus Republican Love Triangle: Broderick ‘The Fugitives’ (1962)

Another bonus on another uncensored book. It’s a classic Irish noir, full of rainy weather and angsty sex. I have no idea why it wasn’t banned – it’s full of queer plotlines and transgressive sex – but I try to work it out.

The cover of the Pan edition – quirky, just like the book itself
