# Event Details - **Event Name**: THE STRANGERS: Naomi Alderman in Conversation - **Event Start and End Date**: Tue, 15 Sep, 2026 at 07:00 pm – Tue, 15 Sep, 2026 at 08:30 pm (+01:00) - **Event Description**: Award winning author Naomi Alderman visits Foyles to celebrate the publication of her newest novel 'The Strangers'About this EventA few months after her mother dies, the novelist Naomi Alderman sets up a wildlife camera in the back garden of her parents’ home. It captures the first image of a strange new animal. Low to the ground, about the size of a badger, flat face, long trunk-like nose. Suddenly these ‘mimmoths’ are as common as foxes or dogs. And no one knows where they’ve come from. As Alderman negotiates the territory of grief – a place with its own logic and rhythms – the mimmoths spread. From the UK east and west, to the United States, to Russia, to India. They seem harmless, but oddly intelligent. They cannot be captured, they will not take food from humans, they have their own purposes. Alderman cannot shake the feeling that she has a particular connection to the creatures. Or is she just succumbing to ‘mimmoth psychosis’? As the impact of the mimmoths increases, she is pulled into the cross currents of conspiracy theories and global power struggles. Have her deeply personal forms of mourning lent recent events a surreal air, or is our reality changing drastically and irrevocably?Naomi Alderman has a degree in Politics, Philosophy and Economics and another one in Classical Studies. Also an MA in Creative Writing and another MA in Classics. She's an award-winning novelist, broadcaster, TV producer and videogames creator. She has worked in technology startups for more than 20 years, since the time when people in tech still felt utopian about "making the world a better place". Which now makes her feel slightly embarrassed about her naivety. She is the author of the bestselling, multi-award-winning The Power, which was chosen as a book of the year by both Bill Gates and Barack Obama and became a TV series for Amazon Prime. Her other books include The Future, The Liars’ Gospel, The Lessons and Disobedience She is the co-creator of the fitness game and audio adventure Zombies, Run! which has more than ten million players. Naomi writes and presents Human Intelligence, a history of thinking on BBC Radio 4.The discussion will be followed by an audience Q&A and book signing.Tickets: £10 General Admission, £8 Foyalty Member / £22 Book and Ticket, inc. a copy of The Strangers (RRP £20)Venue: The Auditorium (Level 6) at Foyles, 107 Charing Cross Road**Please note that the Auditorium at Foyles is fully accessible from the Ground floor lifts. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/london/the-strangers-naomi-alderman-in-conversation/100001996139490952 - **Event Categories**: fitness, Art, literary-art, trips-adventures - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Duration: 1 hour 30 minutes - Location: Foyles - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 8, max: 22, currency: GBP ## Event venue details - **city**: London - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: Foyles - **lat**: 51.5143097 - **long**: -0.1298993 - **full address**: Foyles, 107 Charing Cross Road, London, United Kingdom ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: THE STRANGERS: Naomi Alderman in Conversation - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events10/banners/c0cb04137a06ed087e565dce8ff4a03867a9652f321d9bfe9d6015174cc3b297-rimg-w1200-h629-dce83828-gmir.jpg?v=1787090084 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is THE STRANGERS: Naomi Alderman in Conversation being held? - **A:** THE STRANGERS: Naomi Alderman in Conversation takes place on Tue, 15 Sep, 2026 at 07:00 pm to Tue, 15 Sep, 2026 at 08:30 pm at Foyles, 107 Charing Cross Road, London, United Kingdom. - **Q**: Who is organizing THE STRANGERS: Naomi Alderman in Conversation? - **A:** THE STRANGERS: Naomi Alderman in Conversation is organized by Foyles Bookshop, 107 Charing Cross Road. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "THE STRANGERS: Naomi Alderman in Conversation", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events10/banners/c0cb04137a06ed087e565dce8ff4a03867a9652f321d9bfe9d6015174cc3b297-rimg-w1200-h629-dce83828-gmir.jpg?v=1787090084", "startDate": "2026-09-15T19:00:00+01:00", "endDate": "2026-09-15T20:30:00+01:00", "url": "https://allevents.in/london/the-strangers-naomi-alderman-in-conversation/100001996139490952", "eventStatus": "https://schema.org/EventScheduled", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "Foyles", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "107 Charing Cross Road", "postalCode": "WC2H 0EB", "addressLocality": "London", "addressRegion": "EN", "addressCountry": "GB" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "51.5143097", "longitude": "-0.1298993" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "Award winning author Naomi Alderman visits Foyles to celebrate the publication of her newest novel 'The Strangers'", "offers": [ { "@type": "AggregateOffer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "GBP", "availabilityStarts": "2026-08-18", "availabilityEnds": "2026-09-15T20:30:00+01:00", "validFrom": "2026-08-18", "lowPrice": "8.00", "highPrice": "22.00", "price": "8.00", "url": "https://allevents.in/london/the-strangers-naomi-alderman-in-conversation/100001996139490952" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "GBP", "availabilityStarts": "2026-08-18", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-08-18", "url": "https://allevents.in/london/the-strangers-naomi-alderman-in-conversation/100001996139490952", "price": "10.00", "name": "General Admission" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "GBP", "availabilityStarts": "2026-08-18", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-08-18", "url": "https://allevents.in/london/the-strangers-naomi-alderman-in-conversation/100001996139490952", "price": "22.00", "name": "Book and Ticket" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "GBP", "availabilityStarts": "2026-08-18", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-08-18", "url": "https://allevents.in/london/the-strangers-naomi-alderman-in-conversation/100001996139490952", "price": "8.00", "name": "Foyalty Member" } ], "organizer": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Foyles Bookshop 107 Charing Cross Road", "url": "https://allevents.in/org/foyles-bookshop-107-charing-cross-road/22530794", "description": "The flagship shop of the UK's largest independent bookseller.We have four London bookstores as well as shops in Birmingham, Bristol and Chelmsford.
