Our guest on this episode of More Rosebud is Petroc Trelawney, the broadcaster and writer who is best known as a presenter on BBC Radio 3. Petroc is also an author who is talking to Gyles about his new book 'Trelawney's Cornwall' and about his childhood, growing up on the remote Lizard peninsula. This a moving and open interview, in which Petroc talks about the death of his mother from cancer when he was 12, about the way life in his family of boys changed after that, about the difficulties of coming of age as a gay man in the 80s, about being arrested in Zimbabwe, and about how to cheat in piano lessons.
'Trelawney's Cornwall: A Journey Through Western Lands' by Petroc Trelawny is published by Weidenfeld and Nicolson and is out now.
Thank you to Petroc for such a wonderful conversation.
