Episode 1 of 5

In the first of a series of five talks by British novelists, Howard Jacobson considers the true meaning of Brexit.

In the first of a series of five talks by British novelists reflecting on the state of the nation, a chance encounter forces Howard Jacobson to consider the true meaning of Brexit and ask if national togetherness is no more than a post-war pipe dream. Is the fractiousness of Brexit in fact a return to older and deeper habits? The series also hears from Lionel Shriver, Nadifa Mohamed, James Meek and Jan Carson.
