Hanif Kureishi: Shattered but Unbroken

On Boxing Day in 2022, author Hanif Kureishi suffered a horrific fall that left him paralysed. Compelled to write, he dictated his thoughts to family in dispatches from his hospital bed. The result is Shattered, a profoundly moving reflection on the fragility of the human body and the resolute power of the human spirit. In this event, Kureishi will appear remotely, talking to Chitra Ramaswamy as he shares his insights into recovery, self-discovery, and the enduring nature of creativity.
