On the 18th July 1973 Morning Story broadcast the short story "The Little Palace" by Stan Barstow (1928 - 2011). The story was read by Shirley Dixon.
Sadly, Stan Barstow has died at the age of 83. His obituary can be read in The Guardian.
You can hear Ian Haywood, Professor of Literature at Roehampton University and Stan’s partner, Diana Griffiths discussing Stan Barstow on BBC Radio 4's Last Word.
A short story collection "The Likes of Us" will be published next year.
