Alan Hollinghurst: Our Evenings @ London Literary Festival, Southbank

The author of Booker Prize-winning The Line of Beauty discusses his new novel, a deeply affecting and personal portrait of modern England, with Samira Ahmed. The Line of Beauty described recently by the Sunday Times as the most perfect novel of the 21st century won the Booker Prize twenty years ago. Hollinghursts new novel, Our Evenings, is being hailed as his greatest work since: dark, luminous and rich in both comedy and tragedy, Our Evenings is a portrait of modern England through the lens of one mans acutely observed and often unnerving experience. This event features readings from actor Simon Russell Beale, who also takes part in the discussion, and is chaired by Samira Ahmed, an award-winning journalist and broadcaster who currently presents Newswatch on BBC1 and Front Row on Radio 4. a truly astonishing novel the novel moves through time so beautifully that I felt such a sense of loss at the end Tash Aw
