Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
A number of new fiction and non-fiction books challenged the perspectives and imaginations of readers during the second half of 2015. But trends in the publishing and book-selling industries are also changing the ways in which readers interact with books. Join Kojo for his annual look at the best in winter reading.
