In this episode, Robin travels to Prague to deliver the keynote address at the inaugural European Booksellers conference, RISE. Being around so many booksellers reminds him just how important bookshops are in our society at promoting diversity and voices that are often absent, or ignored, by the mainstream. This episode features conversations with some amazing LGBTQ+ authors and booksellers including Mili Hernández, Lewis Hancox, Lawrence Schimel, Mairi Oliver and Mog Harris as well as RISE President Julie Belgrado.
