Andrea Levy, author of the Orange prize-winning novel, Small Island is in New Zealand talking about her new book The Long Song. With articles in The Herald and interviews on the radio she is gaining lots of interest and rightly so. In conversation with Carole Beau at The Raye Freedman Centre, she explained the origins of the book and its links with her family. She was both funny and serious and a pleasure to listen to.She switched her Jamaican accent off and on to read from the new book in the voices of various characters. In fact, she has recorded the audiobook herself and I am seriously considering listening instead of reading this time.
