Michael Berkeley's guest today is the young writer Edwin Thomas, who also writes under the name Tom Harper. A student of medieval history, his recently-published novel The Mosaic of Shadows is set in 11th-century Byzantium. His musical choices range from Mozart and Weber to Natalie Merchant and Maurice Jarre's soundtrack for Lawrence of Arabia.
