Author Bridget Collins beside their book 'The Silence Factory'

About

Bridget Collins, author of breakout sensation and number 1 bestseller The Binding will be discussing her latest book. An inventive, spellbinding blend of speculative and historical fiction, The Silence Factory is a story of complicity, desire and corruption – a novel to lose yourself in.

Henry dreams of silence. A world without the clattering of carriages through cobbled streets, the distant cries of drunken brawls, the relentless ticking of the clock. Then he meets a fascinating, mysterious gentleman who sells just that. Precious silk that can drown out the clamour of the world – and everything Henry is so desperate to escape.

Bridget Collins will be in conversation with author, freelance writer and radio and podcast producer Christine Penhall.

This event will include an audience Q&A. After the event there will be an opportunity to get your book signed by the author.
