In the final episode of this series of Inside Culture, Mary Beard brings her trademark wit and probing curiosity to an interview with a very special guest - the British-Turkish novelist Elif Shafak whose experiences of migration and exile have informed many of her books including her latest The Island of Missing Trees. Mary asks the Booker nominated writer about her life and career and together they reflect on the art and culture of the moment - exploring themes from belonging and identity to equality and freedom of speech. They also share their thoughts about polarisation on social media and staying sane in an age of division.
