Join Unity’s Chloe Blades in conversation with Charlotte Grimshaw, the critically acclaimed author of 11 books and the 2023 Katherine Mansfield Menton Fellow, on her latest novel The Black Monk.
Her explosive 2021 memoir, The Mirror Book, was ‘exquisitely precise in its navigation of the complexity of the author's family dynamics’ (Ockham judges). In The Black Monk Grimshaw takes to fiction to further explore family, addiction and the stories we each tell ourselves to survive.
