This week on the Penguin Podcast, Nihal is joined by one of Granta's Best of Young British novelists and recent recipient of the Orwell Prize for political fiction, novelists Tom Crewe.
Tom Joins us to discuss his incredible new novel, The New Life.
The two also discuss why the novel took over 10 years to write, what Tom admired most about a particular Victorian age, the candour and insights gained from the collected testimonies in the ground-breaking and inspirational book,
Sexual Inversion, and also how his novel unconsciously reflects the times he has lived through.
