Private Rites: A Book Talk with Julia Armfield

Join us in the bookshop for an evening with the brilliant Julia Armfield to celebrate the paperback release of her chilling sisterly drama, Private Rites. We will explore this latest book, longlisted for the 2024 Climate Fiction Prize, as well as her other works and her life as a writer.

If you're already a fan of Julia's writing, you know that she writes evocative, slightly unsettling, deeply human stories that leave your head spinning and heart aching. Our Wives Under the Sea is one of this bookshop's favourite books ever!

Come enjoy this conversation, ask your questions of Julia and pick up a signed copy or two of her books. This is a free, but ticketed event. Please reserve your seat early through the EventBrite to avoid disappointment.
