Launch of Push Process Tonight!

A final reminder for friends in Glasgow that Push Process is published today, and the launch event is at 7 tonight at Waterstones Byres Road, where I'll be talking to Zoe Strachan, who was my supervisor when I wrote the original version of this book for an MFA at the University of Glasgow. 

Bonus for early arrivers: since this is an Italian-themed book, there will be free homemade gelato, provided by Ieva Grigelionyte!

Join us on Wednesday 6th March at 7pm as we celebrate the launch of Jonathan Walker's Push Process! Jonathan will be in conversation with fellow author and lecturer of Creative Writing at Glasgow University Zoe Strachan, as well as answering questions and signing copies of Push Process. This is a free event, but please let us know if you are attending by reserving your place via the link below; Push Process will be available to purchase on the night. 

PUSH PROCESS - Coming 6/3/24 

"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.
