John Boyne on The Book Shelf with Ryan Tubridy

The Bookshelf

2024

We have 3 of John Boyne’s novels listed on the archive because they feature Care Experienced characters, viz, The Thief of Time (2000), This House is Haunted (2013) and The Heart’s Invisible Furies (2017).

In this podcast, John Boyne talks about his enthusiasm for orphans in literature, for those children who are – who have to be – in charge of their own destinies.

Children and young people in social care, and those who have left, are often subject to stigmatisation and discrimination. Being stigmatised and discriminated against can impact negatively on mental health and wellbeing not only during the care experience but often for many years after too. The project aims to contribute towards changing community attitudes towards care experienced people as a group.
