Watch Christopher Eccleston’s powerful and heart wrenching performance, part of The Read, a series of outstanding performance readings of iconic British novels. Set in an unspecified mining area in Northern England, the novel follows Billy Casper, a young working-class boy troubled at home and at school, who finds and trains a kestrel whom he names ‘Kes’. In 2009, The Observer listed this as one of the 1000 novels everyone must read, describing it as a “compelling and haunting portrait of British working-class youth”.
