Join us at Longton Library as we meet superb author Alison Moore.

Alison Moore's short stories have been included in Best British Short Stories and Best British Horror and broadcast on BBC Radio. They have been collected in The Pre-War House and Other Stories, whose title story won the New Writer Novella Prize, and in Eastmouth and Other Stories.

Her debut novel, The Lighthouse, was shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize and the National Book Awards, winning the McKitterick Prize.

She recently published her fifth novel, The Retreat, and a trilogy for children, beginning with Sunny and the Ghosts.

Alison will be in conversation with Stoke-on-Trent Libraries, talking to us about her life and writing, followed by a question and answer section where you get the chance to ask Alison any questions that you might have.

Alison will be happy to sign books - with Christmas only a few short months away - these would make great Christmas presents for friends and family.

Tickets cost just £3 per person.

Please contact Longton Library by phone: 01782 238424 or email: [email protected] to book tickets in advance.
