An evening with Dawn O’Porter | Radio Times × Brunch Book Club

  • Uncommon 34-37 Liverpool St, London EC2M 7PP (map)

Books, pizza and excellent company. Consider your Wednesday night spoken for.

Radio Times × Brunch Book Club, sponsored by Dr. Oetker Ristorante

We’re swapping brunch for an evening of book chat and you can sit with us.

Join Brunch Book Club, Radio Times and Dr. Oetker Ristorante for a special evening with Dawn O’Porter at Uncommon Liverpool Street.

Dawn will be chatting to Radio Times’ Helen Daly and our founder Taragh Godfrey about her book, Hungry Eyes, and the books that have shaped her life. There’ll be an audience Q&A for those questions you’ve been saving up.

On the menu

Books, naturally. Also pizza.

Doors open at 6pm, giving you time to settle in, enjoy drinks and meet fellow readers before the conversation begins at 7pm.

After the talk, we’ll be enjoying Dr. Oetker Ristorante pizzas, followed by Dr. Oetker desserts, with more time to mingle and compare notes on what everyone’s reading. Vegan and gluten-free pizza options will be available.

There’ll also be a book signing and a book swap. Bring a book you’ve loved and are ready to send on its next adventure and you might leave with a new favourite or another addition to that wildly optimistic TBR pile.

Coming on your own? You’ll be in good company. Meeting other readers is very much part of the evening.
