    Join us in welcoming acclaimed Canadian artists Rachel Davis and Darren McMullen when they tour the UK.

Rachel and Darren have also been nominated for the Canadian Folk Music Award Ensemble of the Year and New/Emerging Artist(s) of the Year.

  • Sally Coulthard

    Pickering Book Tree 43a Market Place, Pickering

    Join us in conversation with bestselling author and columnist Sally Coulthard. We’ll discuss the hidden history of the coast through objects found along its shoreline and brought to life in Sally’s new book, A Brief History of the Coast in 100 Objects. Described as “a true celebration of the flotsam and jetsam left by time and tide” (Rose Ferraby) and “a wonderfully rich and very different narrative that reeks of tang and pungent atmosphere” (Alistair Moffatt), this is a much anticipated follow up to A Brief History of the Countryside in 100 Objects, which was a Waterstones Best Book of 2024 for Nature Writing, and is very popular here in the Book Tree too!

  • Naomi Kelsey

    Pickering Book Tree 43a Market Place, Pickering

    Join us in conversation with Naomi Kelsey to hear about her gripping new historical fiction novel, Pale Mistress, an innovative and compelling reimagining of Othello from the point of view of Bianca, giving voice to this mysterious and maligned character.

  • Daria Kulesh

    Pickering Book Tree 43a Market Place, Pickering

    We’re delighted to welcome “the voice of fairy tales” Daria Kulesh to the Book Tree.
