60 Weeks 60 Books
Zeba Clarke
60 episodes

In about 60 weeks, I am going to hit 60 years. That’s a big number. It makes you think about what you have done, where you have been, what matters to you. My greatest passion has always been reading, whether that was listening to people read to me, or once I grasped the essentials, reading myself. So this year, I am going to talk about 60 books. I have chosen most of the books already, ten for each decade of my life. Some are classics, some are anything but classic, but I chose them because they shaped me in some way, had some form of lasting impact, and in many cases, are regular re-reads. I hope this will amuse, inspire and entertain you.

Episode 47 The Thousand Autumns of Jacob de Zoe
Set on a Dutch trading post built on an artificial island off the coast by Nagasaki, David Mitchell's novel explores what brings us together and what separates us in our cultures, morals and choices. On the surface a straightforward chronological narrative of the first years spent in the East by a young Dutch clerk, Mitchell explores darker stories of corruption, exploitation and cruelty embedded in both Japanese and European men and women. A gripping thriller, a poignant love story and an exploration of friendship and enmity, this is a beautifully written book.
