About this Event
We’re delighted to welcome back celebrated author and Booker Prize winner Alan Hollinghurst to this years’ literary festival where he’ll discuss his new novel Our Evenings. Released just three days before the festival, Our Evenings is both dark and luminous, deeply affecting and wickedly funny. Alan’s new novel gives us a portrait of modern England through the lens of one man’s acutely observed and often unnerving experience. It is the story of race and class, theatre and sexuality, love and the cruel shock of violence.
Alan is the author of six previous novels, The Swimming-Pool Library, The Folding Star, The Spell, The Line of Beauty (winner of the 2004 Man Booker Prize), The Stranger’s Child and The Sparsholt Affair. He lives in London.
