TWO award-winning authors will give an insight into the literary world next week.
Gillian Garnham and Celia Bryce will be at Newton Hall Library, Durham, on Tuesday, to talk about their various publications.
They will take part in a discussion of their work, and stage a question and answer session, while Ms Bryce will play a selection of her music.
Ms Garnham's prize-winning novel, A Private Event, set in Paris at the time of student riots in 1968, sees family secrets and marital infidelities keeping pace with events on the streets.
A former student at Newcastle University, where she subsequently taught, and a college tutor at Durham University, she lives and works in Durham and France.
Ms Byers, who originally trained as a nurse, is an accomplished writer of plays and short stories, several of which have been published in national magazines and broadcast by the BBC.
Her book, Headlines and Other Growing Pains, is described as a bitter-sweet take on the adult world seen through the eyes of a growing child.
The event, at the library in Carr House Drive, starts at 7.15pm.
There is no charge, but places should be reserved on 0191-386 7695.
