Join Words of Colour for Fact meets fiction: The Windrush generation with Tony Fairweather in conversation with award-winning filmmaker Veronica McKenzie, at Libreria

Tony Fairweather, Founder and Director of The Windrush Collection and The Write Thing, will join award-winning filmmaker (Nine Nights), documentarian and producer (Under Your Nose) Veronica McKenzie to discuss his powerful debut novel Twenty-Eight Pounds Ten Shillings: A WINDRUSH STORY.

The book brilliantly reimagines the back stories and experiences of the passengers on board HMT Windrush over a two week voyage when friendships are made and broken, and gambling, racism and sex – amid discussions of God and love – unfold.
