To the Lake (Granta, £14.99), in which Kapka Kassabova continues her sustained examination of the damaging legacies of fences on the ground and in the head, is Book of the Week on Radio 4 from today.

  Kassabova also contributes to Start the Week, in which Andrew Marr and his guests (the others are Dan Jackson, author of The Northumbrians, Emily Thomas, author of the forthcoming The Meaning of Travel: Philosophers Abroad, and the economist Colin Mayer) explore “community cohesion and love of home”.
