“Home is where I feel safe.” - Frances Mensah Williams, Brighton Book Festival 2023

But what happens when that is not your story.

Come and listen to authors tell their stories of home and how they write to overcome the grief of losing "home". Hosted by Colin Grant author of six books and the Director of WritersMosaic, joined by Amy Abdelnoor, whose debut novel Ever Land is inspired by her experiences of living in the West Bank and in Lebanon refugee camps and Fatin Abbas' whose novel Ghost Season connects five characters caught in the crosshairs of the conflict on the Sudanese border.
