Lionel Shriver | EP12

“There is complete capitulation to younger staff”

Ayaan is joined by international best-selling author Lionel Shriver who has long been an outspoken critic of what she calls the ‘culture police’ – people in literary circles who have determined which subjects are allowed to be covered in print, and who is allowed to cover them. Lionel explains how professional cowardice at the top of the publishing world has allowed younger employees to gain undue influence over the industry and punish authors who don’t abide by their left-wing worldview.
