About Brixton BookJam
The Brixton BookJam is a FREE quarterly literary event that is unpredictable, eclectic, and aims to curate the very best in contemporary writing. From a-listers to talented unknowns, each BookJam brings a range of talent to our dedicated and passionate audience.
What happens on the night?
A selection of invited writers and book-people are each given five minutes to either read from their work or talk about a book-related subject that interests them. The authors are around to answer any questions that the audience may have about books and book-nature. In between there will be food, drink, conversation, pitches and signings, and at least one really good argument about typefaces. Entrance is free but we’d really appreciate it if you bought some books about watches. There will be books for sale.
Please email info@brixtonbookjam.com if you’d like to read at, or propose a reader for, one of our future events.
