Kate Roberts

Dr. Kate Roberts

Lisa Gwilym presents a documentary on Dr Kate Roberts, one of Wales's foremost novelists, which was first broadcast in 1965.

The novelist shares her memories with Derec Llwyd Morgan and Gwyn Erfyl as she looks back on her upbringing in Cae'r Gors, Rhosgadfan. The close community and harsh living conditions in Arfon at the beginning of the 20th Century inspired much of her work.

Kate Roberts discusses the art of writing novels and short stories and how her work changed once she moved to live in Denbigh.
