In this episode of Bookable Space, novelist Yvonne Battle-Felton is joined by Jane Austin. Jane reads from Renegade.

About the book:

My second novel, Renegade, is the story of Justin, a 70s urban guerrilla, who late in life is confronted by the consequences of his rebellious youth and grapples with the fallout for his family. When his son is drawn into radical politics in Rojava, Syria, Justin is devasted. It’s a modern tale of political turmoil, loyalty and betrayal and one man’s search for identity.

About the author:

My debut novel, News from Nowhere (2017), was inspired by a collection of family letters from the First World War. Renegade (2022), probes questions of political activism over a sweep of fifty years. It’s a story of human frailty, regret and atonement, fired by my passion for social justice and involvement in my salad days.
