We are so excited for the Manchester launch of Adam Farrer's BROKEN BISCUITS; the second essay collection following the acclaimed Cold Fish Soup.  Doors: 6.30pm, starts: 6.45pm Tickets are £4. Admission is free when purchasing a copy the book. About the book: In his second collection of candid personal essays, Farrer vividly recounts his struggles to live up to masculine expectations. From the calamity of his first serious relationship, an obsession with Prince that sees everyone questioning his sexuality, the repercussions of his adult circumcision and his doubts about his ability to survive the apocalypse to his morbid fear of physical combat and his brush with Satanic Panic in 1980s rural Suffolk, this is a book about growing up, trying to define yourself as a man but somehow always missing the mark. About the author: Adam Farrer is a writer, a lecturer and the editor of the creative nonfiction journal The Real Story. He has been a photo lab technician, an illustrator, a ceramicist, a musician, a music journalist and currently works at the University of Salford, where he is the Writer in Residence for Peel Park. His first book, Cold Fish Soup, won the Northbound Book Award. Tickets are £4.00. Admission is free when purchasing a copy of the book. If you cannot make the event but would like a dedicated copy of the book, please email events.manchester@blackwell.co.uk or call us on 0161 274 3331. Our event format is usually a 45 minute discussion between the author and interviewer, followed by a chance for audience members to ask questions. There will be the opportunity to get your book signed/dedicated after the event. Events are a brilliant opportunity to discover new books, meet authors and likeminded readers and learn something new. Support your local bookshop and help us keep the Manchester literary scene vibrant and exciting.

It is the oldest bookstore in Oxford University. The appearance is inconspicuous but the inside is very spacious. The layout is also very British. Of course, the most popular is the Harry Potter series, the &quot;Lord of the Rings&quot; series by Oxford professor John Tolkien. Professor C. S. Lewis of Oxford, The Legend of Narnia

For a few pounds you can climb to the top of the tower and enjoy a 360-degree view of Oxford, with the most stunning long strip of landscape and the city to the south. The church porch was built four or five hundred years ago, and its spiral columns are a major innovative feature in British architectural history.
