Stoke Newington Literary Festival

Robyn Travis

Robyn is author of Prisoner to the Streets which had a huge impact on publication and garnered much interest across a wide readership including a traditionally hard-to-reach audience. The book launched to a packed out Hackney Empire and quickly sold out. Robyn is a passionate speaker and advocate for young people and regularly uses his own life experiences to try and teach, educate, and inspire younger generations. Prisoner to the Streets is being reissued by OWN IT! in June 2016 followed by publication of his debut novel Mama Can’t Raise No Man in October 2016.
