Event Description

Previously shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize for his novel, The Lives of Others, Neel Mukherjee makes a welcome first appearance at the LitFest to discuss his latest book, Choice. This is already garnering high praise from the likes of The New York Times and The Guardian,  the latter describing it as: “A bleak, brilliant moral maze of a novel about ethical dilemmas, from global poverty to the climate crisis”.

Choice has three distinct narrative threads, each having unintended but devastating consequences, which are ingeniously linked and form a breathtaking exploration of freedom, responsibility and ethics. Fellow writer MonicaAli said that it was: ”Dazzling…by turns comic, lyrical and heartbreaking”. Be sure to join our audience to find out more.

This event is held at The Acorn Theatre.
