On Thursday 18th June Dulwich Books is honoured to host an event with David Mitchell.

Storyteller extraordinaire, twice shortlisted and once longlisted for the Booker prize. He writes literary, audaciously structured and fantastical novels with a flair and wit that makes them a joy to read. This is your opportunity to meet the bestselling author of ?Cloud Atlas? and ?The Bone Clocks? in an intimate and laid back event.

His latest novel, ?The Bone Clocks,? was longlisted for the 2014 Booker Prize and is an epic sweep of a book, starting in 1984 and ending in 2043, weaving in and out of the life of Holly Sykes, shot through with magical threads, literary establishment nods, and a healthy dose of villainy.

At the event David will be interviewed by arts journalist and author Laura Barnett whose forthcoming novel ?Versions of Us? is hotly tipped as one of this year?s breakthrough debut novels.

Tickets are ?10 and include a paperback copy of ?The Bone Clocks,? drinks & canap?s, bookable from https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/david-mitchell-tickets-16167564621, by phone on 02086701920 or in person from Dulwich Books on 6 Croxted Road.

  While they struggle with economics of UK plc, collectively we all suffer as a result of their ineptitude.

  I’ve tried to find details of surgeries being held before but not found any. The section of the Southwark website that details councillors’ surgeries says that: Your locally elected Councillors will be holding a roving surgery programme in the Dulwich Hill area to enable residents to raise any local issues. Residents will be notified by letter in advance of the date, time and specific streets/roads where the surgery will take place. Surgeries are not held in August, on Bank Holidays, Easter or in Christmas Week. Dulwich Hill Ward Councillors I’ve never seen any notification of surgeries being held, including on the DH councillors’ social media accounts. I don’t know if any other residents of Dulwich Hill have? Neighbouring wards all seem to have times and places posted for surgeries.

  I wouldn't feel too bad about that. It's one of the few degree areas that you can do a BA or a BSc in, so it's a fairly wide-ranging and complex subject. Certainly Truss, Kwasi and Reeves seem to struggle with it.

  I can't access the article - what's the gist? I took the markets getting jittery when she was crying at PMQs to be a sign that they trusted her. But maybe it was because they were simply worried about any form of instability. The NIC hikes have stymied the economy, which we could all see a mile off. Will a wealth tax improve things? Does anyone here think the trickle down has any impact and that chasing out the super rich will help things? Or are we just seeing off the biggest contributors to the economy? And has the Kwasi approach ever worked anywhere else? Economics is not my strong point at all, I'd love to know others' opinions, but it seems to be she has few options, especially as the party is so divided.
