SUMMARY:Wine & Crime with...Tim Weaver
DESCRIPTION:Join us in Crickhowell for an evening with bestselling author Tim Weaver\, in conversation with Alis Hawkins\, as he discusses his gripping new thriller The Lost Women — the 15th novel in the much-loved David Raker series. \nOnce a journalist\, now a missing persons investigator\, Raker is haunted by a case from eighteen years ago\, when three women vanished while filming a documentary on the Cornish coast. Today\, he’s drawn into another impossible mystery: a man survives facial surgery after a car accident — but when the bandages come off\, his wife realises he is not her husband. \nAs the two cases collide\, Raker and former detective Colm Healy race against the clock\, with just 48 hours to uncover the truth before everything they love is put at risk. \nMarking 15 years of David Raker novels\, Tim Weaver will also talk about sustaining a long-running crime series\, how the genre has evolved\, and how he keeps his stories fresh and thrilling. \nAn unmissable event for crime fiction fans.

SUMMARY:An evening with...Maya Jordan
DESCRIPTION:Chopsy is a memoir like no other – a gut-wrenchingly powerful\, yet frequently funny account of a life spent defying  the prejudice and inequality faced by working-class women. Maya Jordan’s ambition and resilience was born in the library and nourished by the Open University – through poverty\, early motherhood\, precarious housing\, caring responsibilities and chronic disability – to a point where she finally seized her right to write. \n‘Funny as hell and full of fight. Maya’s voice is the real deal’ Daisy May Cooper. \n‘Her name is Maya Jordan. She is a noisy woman and we should fear her’ Michael Sheen

SUMMARY:An evening with ... Zakia Sewell
DESCRIPTION:In this hopeful quest for a new sense of national identity that unifies rather than divides\, Zakia Sewell explores folk rituals\, myths and traditions throughout the British isles\, from Morris dancing to the Notting Hill Carnival. \n‘I’ve been waiting for a book like this’ – Florence Welch \nAbout Zakia Sewell\nJoin us in conversation with Zakia Sewell. Zakia Sewell is a writer\, DJ and broadcaster based in London. She hosts Dream Time on BBC Radio 6 Music\, and used to host the flagship breakfast show on NTS Radio. For the past eight years she has been producing and presenting radio documentaries and podcasts for platforms such as BBC Radio 3 and 4\, Tate and Camden Arts Centre. Her acclaimed four-part Radio 4 series My Albion was an inspiration for her book. Her writing has appeared in publications including Tate Etc.\, Resident Advisor and Weird Walk as well as in the essay collection This Woman’s Work. \nAbout Finding Albion: Myth\, Folklore and the Quest for a Hidden Britain \nZakia Sewell is on a quest for another Britain. Traversing the length and breadth of our island from Somerset to Scotland\, she’s seeking out a different story – one that lies beyond divisive national myths and symbols. In Finding Albion\, Zakia uncovers an alternative spirit of Britain that is vividly alive today. It is found in otherworldly folk songs\, ancient legends\, Celtic seasonal rites and mystic stone circles that punctuate our landscape. Her journey begins as the sun rises on the spring equinox over Glastonbury Tor\, where she meets neopagans reclaiming traditions from our pre-Christian past. At summer’s peak at Notting Hill Carnival she hears cultural echoes that passed along the slave trade routes from the Caribbean. On All Hallow’s Eve she encounters the ghosts of Empire that are still haunting the nation\, and in the depths of a Cornish winter she asks if today’s new folk revival could unite our increasingly divided country? Finding Albion brings a hopeful story of Britain out from the shadows\, giving us a deeper sense of who we are\, and heralding the promise of a brighter future. \n\nJoin us to find out something new about old lands. \n\n\nEvent Format:\nAuthor talk ‘in conversation’\, followed by audience Q&A and book signing. \nTickets:\n£10 without book or £28 with book \nVenue:\nThe Loft at Bookish is located in our flagship store in Crickhowell\, accessed from Silver Lane.\nPlease let us know if you have an accessibility/mobility requirements. \nRefunds:\nIt is our general policy not to refund event tickets unless an event has sold out.
