Alfred Enoch reads from ‘If I Survive You’ | The Booker Prize

Watch Alfred Enoch read an extract from ‘If I Survive You’, a Booker Prize 2023-shortlisted novel written by Jonathan Escoffery. The story so far: In 1979, as political violence consumes their native Kingston, Topper and Sanya flee to Miami. But they soon learn that the welcome in America will be far from warm.  Trelawny, their youngest son, comes of age in a society that regards him with suspicion and confusion. Their eldest son Delano’s longing for a better future for his own children is equalled only by his recklessness in trying to secure it.  As both brothers navigate the obstacles littered in their path they find themselves pitted against one another.
