Arrivals

Leading London-based writers discuss crossing terrains – both physical and mental.

Are we ever the same when we arrive as when we departed? What baggage to we bring with us, and what did we leave behind?

Join Kamila Shamsie (author of A God in Every Stone), Tahmima Anam (The Golden Age), Helen Simpson (Hey Yeah Right Get A Life) and Michael Salu for a discussion of that electrifying moment of arrival, as well as readings from newly published short fiction.

The discussion is introduced and chaired by the editor of Freeman’s magazine, John Freeman.
