Blake Morrison and Howard Cunnell are masters of the everyday, balancing honesty and care in equal measure. Morrison’s On Memoir: An A-Z of Life Writing offers delightful musings on the art of narrative non-fiction, while his poetry collection Afterburn illuminates the small intimacies that bind us to others. Cunnell’s Sun Country, meanwhile, is a luminous memoir journeying from sorrow to acceptance. They join us to discuss these tender books about stories, memory, and family histories. Chaired by Di Speirs.
