Set a century in the future, it centres on a literary historian researching our own troubled times. It is, as he says, ‘a novel about history, and what we can know of it’. Amongst his many honours and prize, he won the Booker Prize in 1998 for Amsterdam. In 2008, he was awarded an honorary degree by UCL.About the chair:John Mullan is the Lord Northcliffe Professor of Modern English Literature at UCL.Access profile:There is step-free access into the lecture theatre.There are designated spaces for wheelchair users outside the lecture theatre and within the lecture theatre.For full venue access details please visit the AccessAble Website.Image credit: Annalena McAfee
