Radio 4 presents 'The Freedom Papers' in collaboration with Edinburgh International Book Festival. It's a pivotal point in our modern history in terms of political uncertainty and challenges to social justice. This motivated Edinburgh's International Book Festival to commission 52 writers to explore ideas related to freedom. In a one-off Book of the Week, we showcase five very different perspectives on freedom from some of the world's most exciting literary voices, including Yan Lianke, Sandip Roy, Nicola Davies, Carmen Maria Machado, Gavin Francis and Esa Aldegheri.
