Stephen Sackur speaks to writer Jonathan Coe about Brexit and contemporary British society. In case you hadn't noticed Britain is in the grip of a protracted political meltdown about our relationship to the European Union. To leave or remain has divided families, generations, and communities, while everyone seems to be shouting, no-one seems to be listening. Well that's not quite true, Jonathan Coe has been listening to and writing compelling fiction about Britain for decades. Can a novelist help the public understand itself and Brexit better than a parliament full of politicians?
