About this Event
Laura Fish is an award winning writer based in Newcastle.
In her new literary work Lying Perfectly Still we meet Koliwe a compelling young protaganist who is on a journey of self-discovery as she navigates two cultural identites whilst working as an aid worker in Southern Africa.
The country of Eswatini is a far cry from the place her late father told her stories about.
Koliwe's search for truth amongst the people working in international development takes her to the mountains in search of a missing girl where wealth, poverty, tadition and modernity clash.
Harrowing yet richly evocative this novel will appeal to readers of Ayobami Adebayo and Chimamanda Ngozi Adiche.
Laura will read from the book followed by a Q&A and signing opportunity.
