Clare Chambers, the author of Small Pleasures – The Times, Evening Standard and the Daily Telegraph’s Book of the Year – will be talking about her latest novel, Shy Creatures on Wednesday 24th September (7.00pm for 7.30pm).

Shy Creatures is a life-affirming novel about all the different ways we can be confined, how ordinary lives are built of delicate layers of experience, the joy of freedom and the transformative power of kindness.

“Reading a Clare Chambers novel can feel like entering a modest bungalow and finding yourself in a cathedral … This is writing of the highest quality. Wise, beautifully measured and as compelling as you want fiction to be.” The Sunday Times
