Three of the most compelling novelists to emerge in recent years join us to discuss their work and shared themes of family tensions, British Jewish life, and coming of age. Journalist Tom Lamont’s Going Home, named an Observer Debut of 2024, follows three men and a female rabbi who step in to raise a toddler. Gemma Reeves, author of Victoria Park, presents Mamele, a sharp and stylish mother-daughter drama hailed as “brilliant” by the Daily Mail. Award-winning short story writer Nathan Newman’s debut novel, How to Leave The House, was praised by the New York Times as “uproarious, generous, and witty.”
