Big Read Event: Exploring Brighton Bound
This year's Sussex Big Read, Brighton Bound (QueenSpark Books, 2024), documents and examines people’s stories of moving to, around and out of the city over the past 100 years. We are delighted that the authors are joining us, alongside QueenSpark's Director John Riches, to talk about its themes and creation, and why it was commissioned at this time and place. Commentaries on the book will be provided by Althea Wolfe, Director of the Brighton Book Festival and Dulani Kulasinghe from Writing Our Legacy, CIC. The short talks will be followed by a facilitated discussion. Light refreshments will be available.
Book your place through CareerHub.
