Rytmen av London – Anders Steinvall

UPPSALA | Lördag 8 dec kl 17.00

Rytmen av London – en resa genom mångfaldens geografi

London är ett kärt resmål för många svenskar, men också så mycket mer än det: det är en stad som går sin egen väg och mångfalden har blivit det normala. 

Välkommen till en afton med journalisten och författaren Anders Steinvall där han berättar om resan från Brixton till Brexit och tar oss genom vad som kallats Londons ”coola geografi”, ett urbant ideal starkt präglat av immigration.

Gratis!

Mystery Book of the Month – December 2018

1666. London has been destroyed by fire and its citizens are looking for somebody, preferably foreign, to blame. Only the royal Court, with its strong Catholic sympathies, is trying to dampen down the post-conflaguration hysteria. Then, inconveniently, a Frenchman admits to having started it together with an accomplice, whom he says he has subsequently killed.

General Fiction Book of the Month – December 2018

A beautifully moving tale of loss and reaching out to the ones we love, of one man’s journey to discover what really matters in modern life. A million-copy bestseller, a poignant and thought-provoking Japanese tale that asks what it really is that makes life worth living.
