About this Event
Venice, September 1974. A chance meeting between a young English artist and Danilo Donati, production manager for Fellini and Pasolini, leads us into a tale of queer love, political intrigue and brutal M**der. Emily Watlington wrote in Art in America ‘In our own era of rising fascism, of increasing violence and conservatism, Laing's novel feels eerily timely.’ To mark the paperback publication of Olivia Laing will be reading from their work, in conversation with Jack Parlett, author of Flamboyance, and The Poetics of Cruising.
