Tonight from BBC North In Conversation
Left-wing novelist and playwright Barry Hines first came to public attention with his book A Kestrel for a Knave, later turned into the film Kes. More recently he won acclaim for his two television plays The Price of Coal. But he didn't read his first book until he was 20 - and it changed his life. Tonight he talks with Brian Morris about his tough working-class boyhood in a South Yorkshire pit village and the events that led him into full-time writing.
