The third event of the weekend is from prize-winning author, Francis Spufford.

In this powerful novel, Francis imagines the possible futures of five children killed in a wartime rocket attack on London. He lets them experience all the changes of the 20th century and live out their triumphs and disasters.

Ingenious and profound, critics have called it “full of warmth and beauty”, “a story of the everyday, the miraculous and the everlasting” and “a celebration of the gift of life”.

He is in conversation with Claire Berliner, who is a writer, editor and Head of Programmes at The London Library.
