Recommended Posts

Let?s get this festival started with fiction from four of the UK?s foremost practitioners, Natasha Soobramanien & Luke WIlliams, Jonathan Gibbs and + The Goldsmith Prize 2014 shortlisted Will Eaves. Grab a Bukowski Boilermaker Literary Cocktail from the bar and settle in.


Natasha and Luke, authors of first novels Genie and Paul, and The Echo Chamber, read from their collaborative second novel, Diego Garcia. Jonathan Gibbs reads from his debut novel, Randall. Will Eaves reads from his most recent publication, The Absent Therapist, described by author Patricia Duncker as ?a book of soundings, a jostle of voices that variously argue, remember, explain, justify, speculate and meander?.
