Writing London
by Kamila Shamsie - event chair
Celebrate five years of Cityread London.
This event brings together all four living writers whose books have been Cityread choices to date to discuss the joys and challenges of evoking our capital city - Sebastian Faulks with A Week in December, Louisa Young with My Dear I Wanted to Tell You, Ben Aaronovitch with Rivers of London, and Gillian Slovo with 2016's Cityread, Ten Days.
The event will be chaired by novelist Kamila Shamsie. Cityread London unites the capital every April by inviting the whole city to pick up the same book, set in London, and read it together. Events take place across Greater London, in libraries and bookshops, cinemas and stations. In partnership with The Royal Society of Literature and Cityread London
