A dinner party with a difference, Dialect Dinners offers up three online courses of rural and edgeland discussion with a hand picked guest author - an entirely virtual (and accessible!) feast for heart and mind.
Our guest for September is the brilliant author Adam Farrer.
Adam Farrer is a writer, lecturer and editor based in Manchester, UK. His work has been featured in a huge number of places, including The Guardian and Radio 4, and his first book, Cold Fish Soup (Saraband, 2022), a memoir in essays about the Yorkshire coast, won the NorthBound Book Award at the 2021 Northern Writers’ Awards. His second essay collection, Broken Biscuits, will be published by Harper North in 2025.
Adam has also been a photo lab technician, a kitchen porter, the voice of an automated phone system, an illustrator, a ceramicist, a musician, a music journalist, and lectured in creative nonfiction and memoir writing at the University of Lancaster.
Adam will be bringing along his three imaginary courses, and through our Q&A sessions we’ll share a warm and informal chat about his writing life and creative practice.
