All events are free and open to the public, but if you buy a book, the first draft’s on us!

Please join us on 22 April to hear about Burial Rites, Hannah Kent's brilliant literary debut, inspired by a true story: the final days of a young woman accused of murder in Iceland in 1829. Riveting and rich with lyricism, Burial Rites evokes a dramatic existence in a distant time and place, and asks the question: How can one woman hope to endure when her life depends upon the stories told by others?

When: Tuesday 22 April 2014, 6pm.
