HARDtalk

Jonathan Coe

Duration: 30 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC News EuropeLatest broadcast: on BBC News North America

HARDtalk's Stephen Sackur speaks to writer Jonathan Coe. In case you hadn't noticed Britain is in the grip of a protracted meltdown known as Brexit. To Leave, or to Remain... it has divided families, generations, and communities. Everyone seems to be shouting, no-one seems to be listening. Well that's not quite true. Jonathan Coe has been listening to and writing compelling fiction about contemporary Britain for decades. Can this novelist help us understand ourselves and Brexit better than a parliament full of politicians? Show less
