Shadow Lines is all about Royle's love for second hand books and the inclusions he finds left behind from previous owners within them, the stories within stories. You'll find it fascinating if you love second hand books and collecting! 

Robert Graham's The Former Boy Wonder is a quintessential Mancunian story about first loves and the unrelenting march of time. It is a heartfelt coming of age tale about a boy from Belfast who moves to Manchester and in many ways serves as a love letter to the city. Themes of youth, the bittersweetness of aging, nostalgia, music, first loves and fatherhood come into play. 

Both writers will read excerpts from their work and then we will open the floor to a discussion between both writers and yourself, the audience!
