We’re thrilled to welcome Mexican writer Juan Pablo Villalobos to the shop as his latest novel, translated by Daniel Hahn hits our bookshelves.
The Past Pursues Us Like Detectives, Debt Collectors, Thieves is a ‘fast-paced and funny whodunnit’: did he really kill his old friend Everardo with that drunken punch last night?It wasn’t even that good! A writer of singular talent, Juan Pablo’s books are renowned for their trademark energy and humour and we can’t wait to meet the man himself.
In conversation with Lucy Popescu, a writer and arts critic with a background in human rights. Lucy’s reviews regularly feature in the FT, Observe and Literary Review.

This promises to be a lively evening of conversation – with drinks served from 6.30pm
