Glasgow friends – including friends I haven’t met yet! You are invited to the launch of my new novel, Push Process, which will take place one month from today on the official release date: 6 March, 7.00pm, at Waterstones Byres Road (at the top end, near the Botanic Gardens). I’ll be chatting to Zoe Strachan from the University of Glasgow.
There’s no charge to attend, but Waterstones would like people to book a ticket on their system so they have a sense of how many people will be coming. Book here.
This is the first time I’ve been able to do a Glasgow launch event, so would be lovely to see you there, whoever you are! (Also, feel free to share and invite anyone you think might be interested.)
Book details:
More speed, more light, more time.
But this is the fastest possible film, pushed as hard as it can be pushed; the lens wide open to catch every drop of brightness; the slow exposure shaking the image apart. Right up at the edge.
Go farther, closer.
Venice, 2000.
Richard is a postgraduate student living in the city to research its past. He’s supposed to be working in the archive, but he meets Merlo and Lars, two art students who are more interested in Venice’s present. He decides to pick up a camera and join them.
The world comes alive for Richard through photographs: for the first time, he feels connected to a place – and other people. He’s determined to continue, whatever the cost.
Push Process is a novel about art, friendship and being European, illustrated with over fifty black-and-white photographs of Venice.
There'll be copies available on the night. You can also pre-order here, or wherever else you prefer.
