April 2018 News


Robert Hargreaves Reading Group
There is a change in venue and time for the April meeting. Members of the group should have had a notification of this from Howard Norton.

The Rye Bookshop.
There are a few events coming up in April, Thanks to Emma for providing these details:
On Thursday 5 April at 6pm, local author Peter Davey will be launching his debut novel 'Fraud' - a pacey thriller set in the world of film and publishing.
On Saturday 14 April at 6pm, crime author Graham Minett will be giving an evening talk about his books and writing process, and signing copies of the recently released 'Anything For Her' - a thrilling page-turner perfect for fans of 'The Girl Before' and 'Lie With Me'.
And on Saturday 28 April from 10am, we'll be joined by Colin Bateman, who will be signing copies of his crime thriller 'A Dreadful Trade', set on the coastline of Kent and Sussex.

Monsieur Ka, by Vesna Goldsworthy

Ann Driver writes: “I've just finished reading Vesna Goldsworthy's latest novel, Monsieur Ka. The launch was about ten days ago. It is an enthralling, tragic yet delightful story woven around the lives of White Russian exiles, set in 1947 London. It captures the sense of post war Britain in that coldest of cold winters. Vesna has a breath of knowledge of the history and societies of the counties of Europe devastated by the war and by Stalin's terror, which enriches and informs her work.”
