Book Launch – Emma Musty – The Bones of Barry Knight
In a remote refugee camp many diverse lives collide. A child with a love of wizards and an ageing rock star share their fate with a collection of disparate visitors when the camp is attacked.
Years later, they find a way to tell their stories.
A tale of grief and resilience against the greatest odds, The Bones of Barry Knight asks how we can better care for one another on a global scale.
