Acclaimed novelist Abi Daré discusses And So I Roar with Radio 4 presenter Harriett Gilbert. Abi talks about continuing the story of the courageous Adunni, first introduced in The Girl with the Louding Voice (2020). The new novel starts as the young runaway Adunni is about to begin a new life, when a horrible knocking at the gate sets in motion a harrowing ordeal involving desperate choices. The Girl with the Louding Voice was a remarkable international bestseller with readers worldwide, including Malala Yousafzai, Dolly Parton and Maggie O’Farrell, falling in love with the spirited Adunni.
Harriett Gilbert is a broadcaster and writer and is the presenter of A Good Read on BBC Radio 4.
