Rules of Asylum by James Follett is a captivating political thriller set in a repressive Eastern Bloc state during the Cold War. The story revolves around Jan Valery, who has recently escaped from a maximum-security sanatorium, prompting concerns about further dissents. The narrative delves into the tension between state power and personal freedom as Suskin investigates Valery's escape and meets various characters, including the morally ambiguous Interrogator, the authoritarian Governor, and the enigmatic Danski. Themes of freedom, control, and resistance are explored in this radio play broadcast in November 1973 on BBC Radio 4 and produced by Margaret Hall.
