Chapter 1

Chapter 2

Chapter 3 Recommendations

Chapter 1:  Literature used to equate adulthood with parenthood, as did society. But what counts as 'growing up' these days? Is literature changing?

Chapter 2: Astrid introduces 'The Other Half of You', the new novel by Michael Mohammed Ahmed that reads as something of a love letter from a father to a son.

Chapter 3: Jamila takes us through 'The Smash Up' by American author Ali Benjamin.

Recommendations: Astrid recommends Lauren Hough’s 'Leaving Isn’t the Hardest Thing' (and yes, she talks about that Twitter controversy), and Jamila recommends 'The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian' by Sherman Alexie.
