About this Event

Join author and poet Jenni Daiches (Calder) in conversation with playwright, director and podcaster David Neville in our opening event for the 2024 New College Festival of Books and Belief.

Her beautiful new novel ‘Somewhere Else’ covers multiple generations as it explores womanhood and Judaeo-Scottish experience across two World Wars, the creation of Israel and the fall of the Berlin Wall. It is a novel that explores today’s most difficult and urgent questions, not least of which: how to find identity in displacement.

This event is sponsored by the Edinburgh Jewish Literary Society, the Edinburgh Jewish Cultural Centre and the Edinburgh Jewish Studies research group at the University of Edinburgh, and chaired by Hannah Holtschneider.
