Jennifer Niven in conversation with Adele Parks at Waterstones Piccadilly

We’re excited to welcome Jennifer Niven to Piccadilly to discuss and celebrate publication of Meet the Newmans, hosted by Adele Parks. In her latest publication Jennifer Niven, author of All the Bright Places and Breathless spins the charmingly atmospheric, 1960s-set tale of America’s favourite TV family whose perfection-oriented existence begins to seem hopelessly out-of-fashion in the era of liberation.

Jennifer Niven is a number one New York Times and internationally bestselling author of fiction and non-fiction, including the massive breakout All the Bright Places, which she also adapted for a Netflix film, directed by Brett Haley and starring Elle Fanning, Justice Smith, Luke Wilson and Keegan-Michael Key. Her books have been translated into more than seventy-five languages and have won literary awards around the world.

Adele Parks MBE is the author of 24 bestselling novels including the Sunday Times bestsellers Just Between Us and One Last Secret. Over five million copies of her work have been sold in English and her books have been translated into 31 languages. Adele’s Sunday Times Number One bestsellers Lies Lies Lies and Just My Luck were shortlisted for the British Book Awards. She also won two Nielsen Bestseller Awards, the RNA Outstanding Achievement Award, the Capital Crime Fingerprint Award and a Quick Read Learners’ Favourite Award. In 2022 she was awarded an MBE for services to literature.

Please note: book and ticket option includes a copy of Meet the Newmans (RRP £18.99) available for collection on the night.
