Hanif Kureishi

Narrated by: Hanif Kureishi

Summary

In this Audible Sessions we go to our author’s house to discuss a wide selection of his novels, available in audio for the first time: The Nothing, The Black Album, Intimacy, The Last Word and My Ear at His Heart, by acclaimed British playwright, screenwriter and novelist Hanif Kureishi.  

This critically acclaimed British writer of Pakistani descent is the author of some of the most recognised postcolonial literature in the world, including The Buddha of Suburbia, which won the Whitbread Award for best first novel, and to screenplay for My Beautiful Laundrette.   

Hanif Kureishi talks to us about his feelings on writing and teaching it, his love of long-form TV series and what it was like to start writing at a time in which art had to be shocking.
