Hanif Kureishi

Had a great time on Monday evening. Myself and my friend Sass went along to a reading/book signing by Hanif Kureishi at Brighton Uni. He started off with a reading from his newest book My Ear at His Heart' which was quite entertaining as it described his Father's first visit to a brothel...

There were lots of questions put to Hanif about his books and stories that look at racism particularly after recent events. Despite the seriousness of the questions he was still very witty about it all!

Was quite nostalgic for me and Sass as we felt as though we were back at university in a lecture... Ah if only!
