We are delighted to welcome Yael van der Wouden to Waterstones Nottingham to celebrate the paperback release of The Safekeep, the breathtaking novel shortlisted for the 2024 Booker Prize. An exhilarating tale of twisted desire, histories and homes, and the unexpected shape of revenge - for readers of Patricia Highsmith, Sarah Waters and Ian McEwan's Atonement.

But all is upended when her brother Louis delivers his graceless new girlfriend, Eva, at Isabel's doorstep - as a guest, there to stay for the season… In the sweltering heat of summer, Isabel's desperate need for control reaches boiling point. What happens between the two women leads to a revelation which threatens to unravel all she has ever known. Yael will talk about the novel before an audience Q&A and book signing. Yael van der Wouden was born in 1987 and lives and works in The Netherlands. The Safekeep , her debut novel, was shortlisted for the Booker Prize 2024.

Join us as we welcome Ben Aaronovitch to Waterstones Nottingham to celebrate the release of his new book, Stone and Sky , the latest instalment in the beloved Rivers of London series. 'This isn’t London. The rules are different up here.' Detective Sergeant Peter Grant takes a much-needed holiday up in Scotland. And he'll need one when this is over. If more's the merrier, then it's ecstatic as his partner Beverley, their young twins, his mum, dad, his dad's band and their dodgy manager all tag along. Even his boss, DCI Thomas Nightingale, takes in the coastal airs as he trains Peter's cousin Abigail in the arcane arts. And they'll need them too, because Scotland's Granite City has more than its fair share of history and mystery, myth ... and murder. When a body is found in a bus stop, fresh from the sea, the case smells fishy from the off. Something may be stirring beyond the bay - but there's something far stranger in the sky. Ben will discuss his new book before an audience Q&A and book signing. Before becoming a bestselling author, Ben Aaronovitch was a screenwriter for Doctor Who and a bookseller at Waterstones. He now writes full time, and every book in his Rivers of London series has been a Sunday Times Top Ten bestseller. He is published in 14 languages and has sold more than 2 million copies around the world. Aaronovitch is also a trustee on the board of Cityread London and is a long-time supporter of Nigeria's premiere arts and cultural festival, The Aké Festival. He still lives in London, the city he likes to refer to as 'the capital of the world'.

This event will take place across two sessions at Nottingham Central Library: Friday 9 May, 6pm – 9pm (Meeting Room 4) Saturday 10 May, 10am – 6pm (Meeting Room 6) About the Three Circle Method The programme offers a unique journey for artists to delve into the core of their passions, transforming them into compelling and multidimensional concepts for future plays or shows. Participants will embark on a journey to identify ideas that resonate with them on a personal, social, and political level.  Through the innovative three-circle method (developed by Pepa), artists will not only discover the essence of their ideas but also unravel the complexity that makes them powerful and relevant to an audience. This process will encourage participants to create a solid and captivating foundation for a future production focusing on the show’s themes rather than the final form.  Harnessing the power of improvisation skills and various devising exercises, participants will learn to propose bold and imaginative ideas while fostering a collaborative environment. The program emphasizes active listening, drawing inspiration from others, and integrating playful and truthful approaches to theatre making. This unique program seamlessly combines training with the art of making theatre, offering participants an opportunity to discover a fresh perspective on their craft. Aspiring theatre makers will find a safe and inspiring space to transform their long-held ideas into the building blocks of a future play or show. This programme is directed to artists of all backgrounds and experience with a particular interest in theatre making.
