Guardian Books podcast: Review of the year 2011

It's been an adventurous year on the books podcast, so we thought we'd take a pause to look back over some of our favourite moments from the last 12 months. We visit Krakow with the novelist James Hopkin and Paris with Fiachra Gibbons. We go to Russia to hear about machinations in modern Moscow from Luke Harding. We take a tour of gothic Edinburgh and follow Oliver Twist around the back streets of London. We also hear about self-help and sickness in literature – and the poet Alice Oswald treats us to her update of the writing of Bengali poet Rabindranath Tagore.
