麻豆约拍

Jason Reynolds鈥檚 book 鈥楲ong Way Down鈥� is about youth violence and is inspired by something that happened when he was a teenager.

He spoke to 5 Live鈥檚 Nihal Arthanayake about growing up in a cycle of violence:

鈥淚 lost a buddy when I was 19, and in that moment I knew I could take a man鈥檚 life.鈥�
