English: An Evening with Joanna Cannon and Nina Stibbe
A chance to meet two best-selling British novelists who have gained devoted audiences for their darkly funny and charming explorations of the habits and mysteries of ordinary people. At this unique event they discuss their writing lives and their latest books with memoirist Cathy Rentzenbrink. Joanna Cannon is the psychiatrist doctor turned author of the acclaimed The Trouble with Goats and Sheep and Three Things About Elsie, which she now follows with A Tidy Ending, a delightfully sinister novel about a married woman living a nice, quiet suburban life – but where things aren’t always what they seem. Nina Stibbe has been called ‘one of the great comic writers of our time' (Irish Times) for her multi award-winning books including the memoir Love, Nina and the and Reasons to be Cheerful. Her latest is One Day I Shall Astonish the World, the story of the wonderful and surprising path of friendship. About the speakers Joanna Cannon left school at 15, returning to study in her 30s and qualifying as a doctor specialising in psychiatry. Her first two novels The Trouble with Goats and Sheep and Three Things about Elsie were Sunday Times bestsellers and Richard and Judy picks, and her books have sold just under a million copies in the UK alone. Her non-fiction book, Breaking and Mending, a memoir about her experience as a junior doctor, was published in 2019 to critical acclaim. Nina Stibbe was born in Leicester. She is the author of two works of non-fiction - Love, Nina and An Almost Perfect Christmas - and three previous novels: Man at the Helm, Paradise Lodge, and Reasons to be Cheerful, which is the only novel to have won both the Bollinger Everyman Wodehouse Prize for Comic Fiction and the Comedy Women in Print Award. Love, Nina won Non-Fiction Book of the Year and was adapted by Nick Hornby into a BBC TV series. Nina Stibbe lives in Cornwall. |
