The Hidden Life of An Economic Migrant

To the Best of Our Knowledge

    In “The Year of the Runaways”, British novelist Sunjeev Sahota tells the story of three recent immigrants to the UK, and with deft precision examines their struggles, fears, and relationships. Sahota talked about researching the novel — which was shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize last year — and spoke about geographic privilege.
