Event Information:
“Join us for a special evening with bestselling author Bob Mortimer, as he speaks to Richard Ayoade about his new novel The Long Shoe.
Bathroom salesman Matt is at a crossroads. He has lost his job, he is about to be made homeless and his girlfriend has left him. He wants his luck to change and he wants things to go back to how they were. Out of the blue he is offered a job that comes with a free luxury apartment. He hopes this might be enough to tempt her back. But, as events unfold, it starts to dawn on him that perhaps she didn’t leave of her own accord after all…
One of Britain’s most popular comedians, Bob Mortimer is also the bestselling author of And Away…, his memoir; The Satsuma Complex, his debut novel; and its sequel Hotel Avocado.
Bob Mortimer will be in conversation with comedian, actor and author Richard Ayoade.
Tickets include a signed copy of The Long Shoe for collection on the evening. Please note that seating is unreserved.
