Instead of working through your #TBRpile online, why not call into your local indie bookshop this weekend and get talking to some fellow book lovers, maybe even take a chance on their latest recommendation? Take a page out of Kurt Vonnegut's book, don't let the computers do us out of that.
The event will take place in the Francis Skaryna Belarusian Library and Museum and will feature a discussion between Karalina Matskevich and the translators, Ella Dingley and Jim Dingley.
Only one week to go until the publication of What Now, Mr Wolf? and we are delighted to announce a launch for the title in London, on 11 July.
Happy publication day to What Now, Mr Wolf? from @bullaunpress.bsky.social!
