Journalist and novelist, Ali Lowe, joined me to discuss her latest novel, ‘The School Run’.
Topics discussed include:
- The real-world inspo for ‘The School Run’.
- St Ignatius Boys’ School - what such an institution represents to these characters and how they can find themselves willing to do anything - anything at all - in order to secure a spot for their child in such a place.
- The similarities between parent and child - how parents can be hard and harsh on their child out of fear that they are seeing mini versions of themselves.
- Obligations. How promises and the keeping of them can define and drive characters.
- And a ton more!
Thanks very much to Ali for talking with me about ‘The School Run’ on the show.
