Celebrate the launch of Lucy Burns’s debut book, Larger than an Orange. Part diary, part prose poem, part literary collage, Larger than an Orange is an uncompromising, intimate and original memoir. This is the story of an abortion. With raw precision and determined honesty, Lucy Burns carves out a new space for complexity, ambivalence and individual experience.

Featuring readings and discussion, Lucy will be joined in conversation with writer and performer, Kate Feld.

'Irreducible. Once read, it will never be forgotten' Helen Mort, author of Division Street

Doors 6:30pm. Event starts 7pm. Tickets £5, includes free drink.
