Are you in a book group? I answer questions on A Kind of Vanishing and take part in discussions on topics such as:

• when fiction becomes fact – Madeleine McCann disappearance a month before publication of A Kind of Vanishing
• the role of fiction versus non-fiction
• grief and bereavement – the role of fiction as an aid to recovery
• Have you or a relative or a friend been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease? Can fiction help others to understand the complexities of this illness?
