10th May - Robin Ince

Robin Ince is a comedian, writer, science communicator and bibliophile with an appetite for knowledge, bookshops, science and learning about anything and everything. His earlier books include Bibliomaniac and The Importance of Being Interested, and he appears alongside Professor Brian Cox on The Infinite Monkey Cage. He returns to Bert's Books to discuss his new book, "Normally Weird and Weirdly Normal" in May.

Join us at 6.00pm on Saturday 10th May for a complimentary glass of fizz (or soft drink) to hear Robin discuss his writing - undoubtedly with one or two tangents alone the way! There'll be an opportunity to ask your questions - and get your books signed!

Normally Weird & Weirdly Normal - Robin Ince

For over thirty years, award-winning broadcaster and comedian Robin Ince has entertained thousands in person and on air.

But underneath the surface, a whirlwind was at play – a struggle with sadness, concentration, self-doubt and near-constant anxiety. But then he discovered he had all the hallmarks of ADHD and his stumbling blocks became stepping stones. In Normally Weird and Weirdly Normal, Robin uses his own experiences to explore the neurodivergent experience and to ask what the point of “being normal” really is.
