William Boyd

Friday 14 June
Festival Marquee
6.00pm  /   £13, £11(C)

One of Britain’s greatest and most popular novelists achieves a rare feat. Without a running character or a recurring genre, William Boyd writes bestseller after bestseller.  Waiting for Sunrise is a thrilling, plot-twisting novel set in Europe during the First World War - something completely different, as usual, from the author of Any Human Heart, Restless and Ordinary Thunderstorms.
