Jane Rogers is the author of Hitting Trees with Sticks and The Testament of Jessie Lamb (winner of the Arthur C. Clarke award). Alison MacLeod is the author of Unexploded, The Changeling and Fifteen Modern Tales of Attraction. Tonight, Jane and Alison will attempt to unlock the wizardry of two of the greatest short story writers of all time, Fyodor Dostoyevsky and Katherine Mansfield. Tickets £6/£4, available here.
