  • Resumen

  • Jean Rhys' sequel to Jane Eyre, Wide Sargasso Sea, changed the way we think about stories forever. Naomi Alderman meets a fellow novelist who put a marginalised character at the centre of the action.

    Rhys left Dominica to go to school in cold, grey England, but she had always felt out of place. A perfectionist who needed every word in just the right place, she took decades to publish her masterpiece. She was a thinker ahead of her time, who crammed the whole world and its injustices into her writing.

    Special thanks to Sophie Oliver, Senior Lecturer in Modernism at the University of Liverpool.

    Produced by BBC Studios Audio in partnership with The Open University.
