From The Buddha of Suburbia to The Black Album, Hanif Kureishi has inspired generations of young British writers and readers. In this Manchester Literature Festival event, he discusses his award-winning fiction, his acclaimed screenplays (from the Oscar nominated My Beautiful Laundrette to Sammy and Rosie Get Laid and Le Week-End) to his forthcoming book, What Happened? Comic, dark and insightful, his new collection of essays and fiction displays his unique observations of popular culture from social media to the ancient classics; from David Bowie to Georges Simenon.

Presented by Manchester Literature Festival in partnership with the Centre for New Writing and Creative Manchester.

Doors open 7pm.
