This event has now passed. Visit our what's on calendar to view our current events.

The edgy, the weird and the wonderful are the themes of the day as we are joined by Ever Dundas and Heather Parry to dissect their compelling new novels – creepy, thrilling, sinister and terrifying. HellSans is a ubiquitous typeface, enforced by the government. It appears in all communications and in all public spaces. The ultimate control device. In Orpheus Builds a Girl a woman’s grave is robbed, even in death she is controlled by a man obsessed.

Ever Dundas will be appearing virtually.

Chaired by Eris Young

This event will be live streamed and can be viewed online.

Ever Dundas exists in Edinburgh with her husband, cat, and numerous house spiders. She’s co-founder of the Inklusion Guide and her debut novel Goblin won the Saltire First Book of the Year Award 2017. Her second novel, sci-fi thriller HellSans is out now.
