成人快手

How does a boy learn when to run away, when to fight back and when to hide in a phone box?

An original short story written and performed by Javaad Alipoor, specially commissioned by 成人快手 Radio 4.

It's a poetic monologue reflecting on those formative moments of childhood that stay with you, bright and ringing, into adulthood.
