Description

Join us to hear Annabel Abbs in conversation about her new book, with fellow writer Lucy Atkins. Tickets are £5 including a glass of wine or soft drink and can be booked online or in the shop.

In the winter of 2020, Annabel Abbs experienced a series of bereavements. As she grieved, she kept busy by day, but at night sleep eluded her. And yet her sleeplessness led to a profound and unexpected discovery: her Night Self. As the night transformed into a place of creativity and liberation, Annabel found she wasn’t alone. From Louise Bourgeois to Virginia Woolf, women have long found sanctuary, inspiration and courage in darkness. A moving, revelatory voyage into the dark, Sleepless invites us to feel less anxious about our sleep, and to embrace the possibilities of the night.
