Writer Lucy Mangan selects five different economic remedies from literature to see if the answer to the economic recovery has been sitting on her book shelves all along. In programme two, she selects her childhood favourite, The Treasure Seekers by E. Nesbit, and takes it to Andrew Oswald from the University of Warwick and Bridget Rosewell, economist and former chief economic advisor to the Greater London Authority. She tests whether literary fiction can contribute to the debate on economic recovery. Producer: Janet Graves A Pennine production for Â鶹Éç Radio 4.
