I’m delighted that The Humans has been chosen as The City Reads book for 2015! City Reads is an annual citywide reading festival which aims to spread a love of books and ideas to the widest possible audience throughout Brighton & Hove. There’s so much going on around the city- see the events programme here. Thanks to Sarah and everyone at City Reads. If you’ve taken part in the City’s annual ‘big read’ then do join me for the final event at The Old Market in Hove. I’ll be discussing The Humans with journalist and broadcaster Alex Clark. Tickets are available here.
