Writer and Podcaster Jon Mackenzie teaches us about Russell Hoban's novel Riddley Walker.

Welcome to the first episode of The Lesson.

In this podcast, our guest teaches us about whatever they like. No matter how obscure or unusual the topic, guests will give a lesson on their specialist subject and you and we will be their attentive pupils. How they want to run their lesson is entirely up to them. Leave your preconceptions at the metaphorical classroom door, settle down and enjoy The Lesson. 

In episode one, Jon tells us about his favourite novel, the themes it raises and its place within the post-apocalyptic canon. David tries to get to grips with the novel's unusual dialect.
