We're so excited to welcome Agustina Bazterrica and Heather Darwent to Rare Birds Book Shop for this very special event!

Heather is the author of The Things We Do To Our Friends, and is coming back to store this May ahead of the publication of her new book, A Sharp Scratch, to chair a brilliant discussion with Agustina, who is visiting from Argentina. Her novel Tender is the Flesh is another store bestseller, and we couldn't be more excited to host her in celebration of her latest book, The Unworthy.   

Tickets are £5 and can be redeemed against any purchase on the evening of the event.
