My guest in this week’s Book Club podcast is the Booker Prize-winning novelist Howard Jacobson, whose new novel <em>Howl</em> emerges from his rage and despair at the response to the 7 October massacre. He tells me what the novel can do that journalism can’t, why being funny is essential even in the darkest times, and why Zack Polanski isn’t the man he used to be.
