Inside Culture with Mary Beard

Series 3 Episode 4

Mary Beard is in conversation with critically acclaimed and internationally bestselling Nigerian author Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie. Her latest book, `Notes on Grief', conveys her startlingly powerful reaction to losing her father in 2020, the man she credits with instilling in her a strong feminist instinct. Her writing is both tender and fierce, whether it's her Women's Prize-winning novel `Half of a Yellow Sun'.
