WILL SELF in conversation

What to expect at this event

WILL SELF is a political commentator, journalist, TV and radio personality, and the author of many novels (including Umbrella and Phone, shortlisted respectively for the Booker and Goldsmiths Prizes) and books of non-fiction. Here he discusses his memoir, Will, with Dr Guy Mankowski: whether it captures the diversity of his life or, as suggested in the Daily Telegraph, is ‘Just another Selfian character, subject to absolute authorial control, the fragmented derangement of his youth woven into an intricate and coherent whole by the mature author.’
