In a rare UK appearance as part of the Book of Rio anthology promo tour with Comma Press, legendary Brazilian author João Gilberto Noll will be reading from his short story Something Urgently, and discussing  the major themes behind his work with one of the co-editors of the anthology, Katie Slade. Join us for a thought-provoking discussion on João’s work, and subjects as diverse as the state of contemporary Brazilian literature, the short story in Brazil, and the country’s multiple social and cultural issues.
