Catherine Chidgey recently caused an international bidding war among publishers for her major new novel, The Book of Guilt. The two-time Jann Medlicott Acorn Prize for Fiction winner features in this exclusive first event for The Book of Guilt – a work of dystopian fiction set in a sinister version of 1970s England that the winning international publisher deemed “one of the most memorable and haunting reading experiences” of his reading life.
