Novelist Kerry Hudson is setting out ‘a provocation’ calling for wholesale change to encourage and reflect broader spectrum of voices
The award-winning novelist Kerry Hudson is set to make a bold call for change in UK publishing, which she believes is failing “to reflect the extraordinary spectrum of communities in this country”.
Hudson, author of the prize-winning debut novel Tony Hogan Bought Me An Ice-Cream Float Before He Stole My Ma, will call on Thursday evening for the publishing industry in the UK to ban unpaid internships and commit to a living wage for entry-level publishing positions, in order to “create a workforce which is able to relate to, and champion, more diverse voices, thus making them more visible”.
