  • Riassunto

  • In this episode, our host Jerry Brotton is joined by writer and pioneering LBGTQ+ rights activist Roz Kaveney. Roz is best known for her cultural critiques, poetry, fantasy writing, and editing.

    Content warning: this episode deals with the topic of sexual assault.
    From Tolkien's draft map of Rohan from The Lord of the Rings, Jerry and Roz launch into a discussion about the importance of fantasy, adventure, and never giving up – no matter the odds and no matter the times that we live in.

    In What’s Your Map? we speak to people who live, love and work with maps - making, preserving, interpreting, and being inspired by them. In each episode, we ask our guest to unfold a map that is special to them, and explore the stories attached to it.
