About
Join two of modern literature’s most daring voices for an electrifying conversation on the mechanics of obsession and the weight of family legacies. In Floodlines Saleem Haddad’s sweeping, tension-filled novel set between London and Baghdad, domestic intimacy becomes a pressure cooker of family drama, hidden histories, and queer identity. Meanwhile, award-winning Canadian playwright, Jordan Tannahill’s new novel, The Living Realm, sees an unexpected encounter in Berlin send a British expat spiraling into an obsessive twilight zone where the line between living desire and dead lovers dissolves. Both authors examine how queer narratives use memory, myth, and the uncanny to redefine what it means to belong and what happens when the past you’ve tried to escape comes back to demand a reckoning.
