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.

    • A fair amount hangs on SCOTUS in the coming days. Will they prop up Trump's powers under Executive Orders or choose to support Congress? Some of the Judges are clearly corrupt but perhaps others, like Coney Barrett, will grow a conscience. 
    • Why stop with Trump and his dogs Vance, Kash, Kennedy, Bondi, etc? May as well take out his employer Vlad, too🙄  💣
    • So unless Spartacus' fantasy world comes about (chance would be a fine thing) we are all still f***ed 😭
    • Yes, he would become President.  Lyndon Johnson, VP became President after the assassination of John Kennedy.  Harry Truman, VP became President after the death in office of Franklin Roosevelt.  Andrew Johnson, VP became President after the assassination of Abraham Lincoln.
