Andrea Levy will talk to John Mullan about Small Island. Set in 1948, the novel is narrated by four different characters – Gilbert and Hortense, a married couple newly arrived in London from Jamaica, Queenie, their English landlady and her husband, Bernard. A comic and touching story about the first wave of West Indian immigration to Britain, exploring themes of empire, prejudice, war and love, it won both the Orange and the Whitbread prizes in 2004 and was later adapted for the small screen by the BBC.
