The Power of Voice – Sulaiman Addonia on The Seers
In this special live recording we dive into The Seers, the mesmerising new novel by Sulaiman Addonia. In conversation with Adam Biles, Addonia shares the story behind his bold, unfiltered novel—written as a single, unbroken paragraph—through the voice of Hannah, an Eritrean refugee navigating love, loss, sexuality, and identity on the streets of London. Three powerful readings by Liya Kebede, bringing Hannah’s world vividly to life
The Seers is a novel that defies definition—sensual, poetic, and politically charged. Addonia’s reflections on storytelling, migration, and the search for home will stay with you long after you listen.
