About Nicola Dinan: In conversation with Lesley McDowell

Join us on Wednesday 15th May when we will be joined by Nicola Dinan to celebrate the paperback release of Bellies.

It begins as your typical boy meets boy. Tom and Ming meet on a night out at university and fall hard for each other. It’s not long before they are planning a future and building a life. Then Ming announces her intention to transition. As Tom and Ming both face shifts in their relationship and confront the vastly different shapes their lives have taken, they must both ask if it is worth losing a part of themselves – or each other – to become the people they want to be.

Nicola will be interviewed by Lesley McDowell, author of Clairmont, the spellbinding, bold new retelling of the story of Lord Byron and the Shelleys, from the perspective of Claire Clairmont, the incredible woman that history tried to forget.

This is sure to be a great evening, followed by a Q&A and a signing.
