Book Launch: Thomas Chadwick's "Above the Fat"

Burley Fisher Books, Dalston
22 November @ 7.00pm – 9.00pm

Please join Splice for the launch of Above the Fat, the début short story collection by Thomas Chadwick, at Burley Fisher Books. Chadwick’s stories have been shortlisted for the White Review prize and the Galley Beggar prize, and Above the Fat was one of this year’s “Book of the Month” selections for the Republic of Consciousness Prize.

To celebrate the launch, Thomas Chadwick will be reading live with support from Michael Conley (author of Flare and Falter, longlisted for this year’s Edge Hill Prize) and Deirdre Shanahan (author of Carrying Fire and Water, and winner of the Wasafiri New Writing Prize). There’s a bar onsite, plus giveaways — pamphlets featuring samples of forthcoming books published by Splice — and a first-look opportunity to see the Splice anthology featuring new stories from Thomas and Michael alongside Dana Diehl, Reneé Bibby, Abi Hynes, and Victoria Manifold.

View details at the Burley Fisher website.
