This week’s story comes to us from Parma, Italy. "The Bread" is a short fiction dedicated to the sourdough-starting breadmakers of this pandemic. Written and performed by Italian interpreter and translator Lisa Bertacchini and performed in English by Sarah Golding. This work, originally in Italian, has been also produced in English, and you can listen to that version later on in the episode.
