Afterwords

Listen to lively discussions between Hurst authors, journalists and leading experts as they interrogate the stories behind thought-provoking books.

This season, you’ll hear about our new era of mass protest and whether nonviolent action can achieve real political change; the changing face of modern terrorism in the UK; the complex and delicate process of peace-making in an increasingly dystopian world; a fresh take on the iconic writer Virginia Woolf and her deeply problematic prank; lessons in guilt and gratitude to the British from Mihir Bose; and a culinary adventure like you’ve never seen…or heard…before.
