Join us as we celebrate the publication of Minbak with bestselling author Ela Lee and The Candid Book Club. Minbak is a sweeping story of three generations of women who cross continents and decades to find truth, forgiveness and compassion. As the past collides with the present, all three women are forced to face not only their family’s dark history, but that of an entire country.

The Candid Book Club are five unique reading women of colour who lend their candid voices to books new, books old and books borrowed. They give the most honest reviews on Instagram and Tiktok and host dynamic book club events with authors and readers at Piccadilly. This time they're back to interview one of their favourite authors for a special evening with all of you.
