Salley Vickers first novel Miss Garnet?s Angel was an international word of mouth bestseller, and she has since established herself as one of our leading novelists, in the tradition of Penelope Fitzgerald and Marilynne Robinson. In her latest book, Cousins, brilliant and mercurial Will Tye suffers a life changing accident with consequences which echo through three generations of the Tye family. Each member of the family holds some clue to the chain of events which may have led to the accident and each holds themselves to blame.


Cousins is a subtle novel weaving darkness and light which takes us from the outbreak of World War Two to the present day, exploring the recurrence of tragedy, the nature of transgression, and the limits of morality and love.


Salley will be in conversation with Joy Rhoades. Joy is the author of The Woolgrower?s Companion is the gripping love story of one woman?s fight to save her home and a passionate tribute to Australia?s landscape and its peoples.


Hazel loved Joy?s novel and says ? it is a gripping tale beautifully told that has been described as ?Captain Corelli meets The Thornbirds?, though she thinks it has a flavour of A Town Like Alice.


This event is taking place at Bell House, 27 College Road, Dulwich Village.

    • Have you seen the new guide? It doesn't say  anything at all about food waste compostable bags. It says to put food waste directly as it is from the kitchen caddy to the larger outside caddy. What do you mean by "small leftover waste"?  Recycling waste always goes in the blue bin? Surely we aren't meant to be wasting black plastic bags every week by always putting non recyclable items into a black bag before putting them into the green bin? Surely the whole point of the green bin is to avoid using one-use-only plastic bags? I'm even more confused now 🤣
    • I want to endorse these reviews of Niko.  I had a problem with my toilet flush and he was able to resolve it. He is reliable, efficient and has a friendly and professional manner. I would have no hesitation in recommending him and will definitely turn to him again with any future plumbing needs. 
    • I hadn’t realised it had been painted over. Seems a damn shame. 
    • Alleyn park garden centre in west Dulwich have a lovely selection- they will deliver  lovely family run independent business (got some super Xmas wreaths and table pieces also)
