Book Slam

London's best literary event featuring storytelling in all its forms – prose, poetry, comedy and songwriting - returns to the Tabernacle in Notting Hill.

Joining us are Gary Shteyngart, the award-winning comic novelist whose 'Little Failure: A Memoir' is published 35 years after he left Leningrad for the States, and Sheila Heti, whose extraordinary book, 'How Should A Person Be', is one of the most talked about of the last year and puts the 'meta' into 'just met a girl'.

Music comes from South London's finest, Jake Isaac, and all will be seamlessly stitched (is such a thing possible?) by the man who brings the yam to the Book Slam fam, Nikesh Shukla.
