Cecile Pin

Following her Women's Prize-longlisted debut Wandering Souls, Cecile Pin returns with Celestial Lights, Homer's Odyssey for the modern age.

Oliver Ines, born on the day of the Challenger shuttle disaster, grows up to become one of the world's most celebrated astronauts.

When he's offered the chance to lead a decade-long mission to a distant moon, he must confront the ultimate question: what is the cost of chasing the impossible and what will be waiting for him when he returns? In conversation with Daniel Hahn, Cecile explores ambition, love, family and the enduring pull of home.

There will be a book signing after this event.
