EVENT: LARS IYER & LEE ROURKE, MONDAY 11TH APRIL

Lars Iyer and Lee Rourke will be reading from their novels tomorrow (Monday) at 6.30pm.

Based on the blog of the same name, Spurious is Lars Iyer's deadpan account of two academics ("neither of [whom] is Kafka") and their rather unbalanced relationship.

Lee Rourke's The Canal, meanwhile, is a novel about boredom which is defiantly unboring: the book is joint winner of the Guardian's Not The Booker prize.

The event takes place in the bookshop and should run 'til about 8.30pm. Expect readings, discussion about things literary and a pleasing amount of free alcohol. For more information, ring the shop on 0161 274 3331 or leave a comment.
