Graeme Macrae Burnet

Please note this event will now take place in Greenside Church.

We have another wonderful event scheduled with one of our favourite writers, Graeme Macrae Burnet. Graeme has visited Topping & Company Booksellers twice before, for Man Booker Shortlisted His Bloody Project and The Accident on the A35.

“I have decided to write down everything that happens, because I feel, I suppose, I may be putting myself in danger.” London, 1965.

An unworldly young woman believes that a charismatic psychotherapist, Collins Braithwaite, has driven her sister to suicide. Intent on confirming her suspicions, she assumes a false identity and presents herself to him as a client, recording her experiences in a series of notebooks. But she soon finds herself drawn into a world in which she can no longer be certain of anything: even her own character. In Case Study, Graeme Macrae Burnet presents a dazzling – and often wickedly humorous – meditation on the nature of sanity, identity and truth itself.

It should be a fascinating evening by one of our most inventive novelists writing today.
