Culture Matters Presents: Charlie Hill & Wayne Dean-Richards Double Header

Culture Matters are proud to present an online prose double-header featuring the writerly talents of CM stalwarts Wayne Dean-Richards & Charlie Hill.

Charlie will read from his recently published CM pamphlet This Albion: Snapshots of a Compromised Land, a psycho-geographical journey across the UK's post-industrial edges; a journey driven equally by wit, warmth, and keen-eyed observation.

Wayne will read from his CM collection of short stories, Money & Blood, which probes the dark power of capitalism in our everyday lives, its legacies of violence, and its often tragic consequences.

Join us for readings from both authors, with a lively Q&A hosted by associate editor, Fran Lock. It will be wild!!!

Wayne Dean-Richards’ work has appeared in a shedload of magazines and several anthologies. Spouting Forth published a collection of his short fiction – At the Edge – and a novel – Breakpoints. Another story collection – Cuts – and one with his son Kalman Dean-Richards – A Box of Porn – subsequently appeared. A new story collection – Money & Blood – was recently published by Culture Matters, and a collection of poems – It's A Mad World But Funny – by Outside Left.

Charlie Hill is a writer from Birmingham, who left school at 16 to work in the Bull Ring fish market. He then spent decades in-and-out of minimum-waged work & years with no fixed abode or precariously housed. He started writing on buses & in the pub & his first novel was published in 2010. He now works as a Fellow for the Royal Literary Fund. Charlie still lives in Birmingham, though he is happiest up a fell or near the sea.
