Book Now 2008 : Philip Hensher: The Northern Clemency OLD EVENT

Philip Hensher's new novel has been long-listed for this year's Man Booker Prize. The shortlist will be announced early in September — we will post the result as soon as it is known. The book is set in Sheffield between 1974 and 1996, is a portrait of an entire era, concerning the lives of ordinary people during a time of political and social upheaval. Inspired by the great 19th century Russian novels, The Northern Clemency shows Philip Hensher to be a fine chronicler of English life.

Old Town Hall, 7.30pm, £8 (£7 concessions).
