Louise Beech: A Life In Books

Newark Town Hall, 9th July, 10.30am-11.30am. £7/£4 Festival Friends. A Newark Book Festival event. Louise Beech joins us in conversation with Tim Rideout about her life in books. Louise's latest thriller, End of Story, is set in a dystopia in which fiction has been banned by the government, writing novels is a crime and reading fairytales to children is punishable by law. Her memoir, Eighteen Seconds is a gripping memoir of horror and forgiveness that explores how family can be the best thing in your life, and the worst.
