Lincoln Central Library is hosting an afternoon author talk with award winning author; Celeste Mohammed.
On Friday 17th October from 2pm join Celeste Mohammed & Professor Claudia Capancioni in conversation. The conversation will focus on craft, narrative and historic documentation in fiction from the perspective of an Indo-Trinidadian writer.
Celeste Mohammed, brings her particular blend of storytelling to Lincoln, launching her new novel, Ever Since We Small.
Ever Since We Small is an intricately woven family saga which covers a sweeping landscape from the days of the British Raj in India, to multicultural modern Trinidad.
This triumphant second novel builds on the award-winning brilliance of her first novel-in-stories,
Pleasantview which was awarded the 2022 OCM BOCAS Prize for Caribbean Literature.
Tickets cost £3 and include light refreshments.
