Three debut authors and their
three London set novels land
at the Crow for an evening of
readings and insights into the
publishing process for new
writers.
Libby Page’s The Lido is a
tender, joyous debut novel
about a cub reporter and her
eighty-six-year-old subject—and
the unlikely and life-changing
friendship that develops
between them based around
Brockwell lido. The film rights
have already been bought.
Katy Mahood’s Entanglement
is told in rhythmic and
captivating prose. The novel
effortlessly interweaves the
stories of two families who
increasingly come to define one
another in the most vital and astounding ways.
With this soaring debut, Katy explores the
choices and encounters that make up a lifetime,
reminding us just how closely we are all
connected.
Guy Gunaratne’s In Our Mad and Furious City
follows three young men on a London council
estate over 48 hours when suddenly everything
is at stake. It is a blistering debut and an
unforgettable portrait of London, appealing to
fans of THIS IS ENGLAND.
