Ian McEwan is one of the most celebrated British authors at work today. Join him for an exclusive event ahead of the publication of his new novel Nutshell (published 1st September). Nutshell is a classic story of murder and deceit, told by a narrator with a perspective and voice unlike any in recent literature. Ian McEwan’s novels include Atonement (shortlisted for the Booker Prize and turned into an award-winning film), On Chesil Beach, Enduring Love, The Children Act, The Child in Time, Saturday and Amsterdam (which won the 1998 Booker Prize).
Don’t miss this opportunity to be one of the very first to hear about McEwan’s new book and to get your hands on a signed copy of Nutshell before publication.
