About this talk

Toast to independent publishers in our new quarterly events, as we share readings from – and conversation about – books that defy the ordinary. Known for taking creative risks and championing fresh perspectives, independent publishers bring vital, boundary-pushing books into the world – works that often wouldn’t find space in the mainstream. Indie Night is our brand-new quarterly series celebrating these presses and the brilliant authors they publish. Each event showcases a handpicked, eclectic mix of four writers – fiction and nonfiction, established names and emerging voices – united by the same independent spirit as their publishers. One by one, the authors read from their work and sit down for a conversation with our hosts, Okechukwu Nzelu and Eliza Clark. This month’s edition features readings and discussion from Amelia Abraham (MACK), Speech Debelle (Watkins Publishing), M John Harrison (Serpent’s Tail) and Jackie Thomae (DAS Editions).
