Join us for an engaging evening with British-Indian author Dr Gopi Chandroth, as he reflects on identity, migration, belonging, and the cultural connections between India and the UK through his book INDISHMAN: Reflections from India, Britain and the Sea.
As part of the National Year of Reading, this special Culture Friday event highlights the power of books and storytelling to broaden perspectives, foster empathy, and connect people across cultures and generations. Through personal experiences and reflections that span countries, cultures, and the sea, Dr Chandroth invites readers to consider the many layers of identity and what it means to belong in an increasingly interconnected world.
Whether you are an avid reader, a lover of contemporary literature, interested in stories of migration, or simply curious about the cultural journeys that shape our societies, this promises to be a thoughtful and enriching conversation.
Join fellow readers and literature enthusiasts for an evening that celebrates the joy of reading, the exchange of ideas, and the stories that help us understand ourselves and one another.
