- **Event Description**: Waterstones Liverpool are beyond delighted to finally welcome David Keenan who joins us to discuss his latest spellbinding novel Boyhood.About this EventWe are thrilled to welcome David Keenan who joins us to discuss his new novel BoyhoodAuthor of the cult masterpiece Memorial Device, David's other novels incude Xstabeth, For The Good Times and Monument Maker amongst others.Boyhood opens in 1979 with the abduction of a young boy outside a Glasgow football ground. Nine years later, the boy's brother, Aaron Murray, is on the cusp of that moment when adolescence becomes adulthood. His own journey of grief and recovery has been guided by an angel, 'The Precious Gift' - perhaps imagined, perhaps real - who has blessed Aaron with redemptive, messianic powers. These have enabled him to see through the past and present, joining the dots between a vast array of characters; ballerinas, soldiers, poets, burlesque dancers, East End gangsters and the Vampire of Derry over five decades, all tied up in each other's fate.As Aaron's visions span cities and decades, from wartime Paris to the Troubles in the 1970s, Mexico City in the 1980s to - of course - Glasgow, Boyhood builds to an extraordinary, intense, climactic moment of redemption.A book of great joy, of laughter in the face of horror and delight in storytelling by the beloved and critically acclaimed author of This Is Memorial Device, Boyhood is a hymn to the resilience of youth, to the brave dreams of artists and lovers and a love letter to Glasgow - a city where magic happens.David Keenan is a wizard with words, each fresh work a new spell cast out across the cosmos. There's no-one else quite like him. How could there be? - BENJAMIN MYERS'Boyhood is a complete triumph . . . it slaps our dull, sterile culture hard across the face with a studded, uncompromising literary glove' - IRVINE WELSHWe are thrilled to welcome David for - astonishingly - his first ever visit to Liverpool. Join us for what promises to be an unforgettable evening of literary pyrotechnics.
