Patrick Gale & Lisa Ridzén: Before It’s Too Late

Family frailty and how ageing fathers ache for connection as the clock ticks down: these are the threads linking Patrick Gale’s Love Lane (the follow-up to his Costa Novel Prize-shortlisted A Place Called Winter) and Lisa Ridzén’s heartrending debut, When the Cranes Fly South.

Is it ever too late for reconciliation? Brace your nerve endings for a powerful conversation between the authors as they reflect on regret, forgiveness, and their profoundly life-affirming novels.
