Join us in conversation with Elizabeth O’Connor about her beautifully evocative debut novel Whale Fall, a book which saw fantastic media reviews and is now out in paperback.
Set on a remote island off the coast of Wales on the cusp of the Second World War, this is a haunting and atmospheric story of change, longing and rural community.
The Book Tree Booker Party is back for a second year by popular demand! Join us for a relaxed evening of bookish chat about the exceptional longlist and shortlisted books, enjoy a glass of wine, and watch the winner announcement together. Whether you’ve read one book from this year’s longlist, have challenged yourself to the full Booker 13, or want to know which to pick up first, everyone’s welcome to explore the Booker Prize with us!
We’re very much looking forward to welcoming Amanda Huggins to discuss her evocative new novella, The Blue of You. This is a beautifully layered and bittersweet story of memory, grief, home, and healing, set against the backdrop of our very recognisable north-east coastline. This is not a Christmas story, but is set around the holiday period, making it a perfect choice to read this time of year!
