Two Faber authors will discuss Pop Culture. Novelist and frontman for Richmond Fontaine, Willy Vlautin will read from his latest book and will sing a few songs from his back catalogue and Richard Thomas, who runs the ‘Vox N’Roll’ nights in London will be talking to Kevin Cummins about his new book, ‘Manchester:Looking For The Light Through The Pouring Rain’, out in September. 

Kevin Cummins was a photographer on the NME for two decades. He now takes pictures for The Times, Guardian and others and he publishes his book, in September. The definitive photographic history of Manchester pop from 1976 to today, it features some of the most iconic music photographs of all times.buy
