RNZ's Nine to Noon: Seascraper by Benjamin Wood
Jenna called into the RNZ studio to talk about Booker longlisted, Seascraper, by Benjamin Wood.
Set in a seaside town, in 1960’s England, a teenage shrimp scraper dreams of a life outside of his grueling work. When a film director comes to town, his world suddenly opens up.
This is a tightly written narrative. Immersive, insular, timeless modern classic that explores asperation vs. duty. A hot contender for the Booker shortlist!
