Book Salon
with Florence Knapp
Join British author Florence Knapp for a very special evening as she discusses her highly acclaimed debut novel, The Names. Published last year to immediate and widespread praise, The Names was described by The Sunday Times as “the best debut novel in years.” Exploring three names, three versions of a life, and the infinite possibilities sparked by a single decision, the book firmly establishes Knapp as one of the most exciting new voices in contemporary fiction.
During the talk, Florence will share the inspiration behind The Names in an insightful conversation, followed by an audience Q&A and book signing. Copies of The Names will be available to purchase on the night from BookBar.
