This show will go on sale on Thursday 3 July.
Why do families make such fertile ground for fiction? Novelists Marina Kemp and Joanna Howat will meet to discuss the joys and challenges of bringing a family to life in their work.
Acclaimed author Marina Kemp will discuss her second novel, The Unwilding, a stunning literary work about power, desire, and family secrets. Described as ‘powerfully compelling’ by The Guardian and ‘subtle, complex and ambitious’ by The Times, Marina has been shortlisted for The Sunday Times Young Writer and The Times Breakthrough Artist Awards, and the Pat Kavanagh Prize.
In conversation with Marina will be North Yorkshire-based author, Joanna Howat. Joanna is a former BBC journalist who lives near Bedale. Her debut novel, Crescendo, is a darkly funny literary tale of loss, redemption and complex family dynamics. Crescendo has been described as ‘this beautiful, intricately-woven novel will echo in your heart long after you turn the last page’.
This show is part of the Richmond Walking and Book Festival.
