Hungerford Bridge
A spoken-word collaboration
Another stunning sketch by Magdalen Hashimi; another beautifully understated animation by Chris Keenan.
The scene, from my debut novel, Sanctuary, depicts Alex’s night walk through London with Amy, a gorgeous, funny junior barrister he has just met, to whom he finds himself unable to say goodbye…
I recorded the extract a month ago with the mega talented Jim Perkins, who set the words to the upcoming release, ‘The Writing Room’, composed and performed by Jim himself on Bigo&Twigetti, and available on all streaming platforms from 5 September.
Should add that earlier this year, I had the pleasure of recording the full audiobook of Sanctuary at the RNIB’s Talking Book Studios in Camden, and it’s now available to listen to on Audible 🎧
