Proud to partner with the Jewish Chronicle Lionel Shriver in conversation with Zoe Strimpel
Lionel Shriver
The Orange Prize winning author of We Need to Talk About Kevin and The Mandibles returns to Jewish Book Week to discuss her career and give a preview of her next novel. Lionel Shriver‘s most recent book The Motion Of The Body Through Space was described as “scabrously funny” by The Guardian; Should We Stay or Should We Go, to be published this summer, takes the brilliant premise of a married couple in their 80s facing the realities of a decades-old pact to avoid the ignominies of ageing. She will be in conversation with Sunday Telegraph columnist and author Zoe Strimpel.
