Tom Connolly will be appearing at Robertsbridge Literary Festival to talk about his writing and the importance of place and landscape in his work.

An acclaimed writer and filmmaker Tom’s first novel, The Spider Truces, was a Financial Times Book of the Year and listed for awards including for the Desmond Elliott Prize, the Waverton Good Read Award and the Writers’ Guild of Great Britain Award. His latest novel, Men Like Air, is a funny, turbulent and heartfelt study of male relationships, and a glorious love letter to the city of New York.

Copies of both books will be for sale.

Tickets are £5 and available via the Robertsbridge Arts Partnership.
