Send us a textIngrid Persaud's debut novel Love After Love blew me away the first time I read it in 2020 shortly after it was published. Re-reading it recently for this podcast has made me love it even more.The title of this novel is from the Derek Walcott poem Love After Love - find it here https://allpoetry.com/love-after-love it is also so moving and thought provoking.Anita and I talk about the importance of loving reading, of escaping via the pages of a novel. Love After Love, set in Trinidad and following a very unconventional family is a brilliant book in which to escape the winter blues and find yourself in the Caribbean.Among other things there are themes of secrets, unconventional families, different types of love, migration, belonging, self harm, homophobia and expectations.
