In his latest (and probably his last) book, The Body: A Guide for Occupants (published in 2019), Bill Bryson turns his attention inwards to explore the human body, how it functions, its remarkable ability to heal itself and the ways it can fail. It was fabulous – particularly as Bryson himself is the narrator. Highly recommended! Rich and I listened to the The Body on Audible on the long drive back from the coast last week.


I am a huge Bill Bryson fan! Years ago, I arranged his publicity tour when he came to South Africa to promote Made in America and am among the thousands of readers who were devastated to hear he is retiring from writing.
