Jude Rogers: The Sound of Being Human

About

As part of our theme 'Joyful Noise', we are pleased to welcome author and journalist Jude Rogers to talk about her book 'The Sound of Being Human'. In it she explores, in detail, why music plays such a deep-rooted role in so many lives, from before we are born to our last days. At its heart is Jude's own story: how songs helped her wrestle with the grief of losing her father at age five; concoct her own sense of self as a lonely adolescent; sky-rocket her relationships, both real and imagined, in the flushes of early womanhood, propel her own journey into working life, adulthood and parenthood, and look to the future.
