Listen to “A Woman on the Edge of Time,” a BBC Radio Drama based on the book by faculty member Jeremy Gavron
Listen to Jeremy Gavron’s quest to piece together why, in 1965, his mother took her own life on this BBC 15 Minute Drama Radio Series.
In 1965, Hannah Gavron – a 29 year old, bright, sophisticated sociologist – gassed herself in a flat in Primrose Hill, north London. She left behind a suicide note, two small children, and an about-to-be-published manuscript: The Captive Wife. Four decades later, her son Jeremy tries to piece together the events that led to her death. Jeremy Gavron’s book is dramatized by Sarah Daniels and stars Dominic Mafham, Helen Clapp and James Bolam.
