Iain M Banks

6 Oct 2010 / Studio Theatre

Iain M Banks came to widespread and controversial public notice with the publication of his first novel The Wasp Factory in 1984. He has since gained enormous popular and critical acclaim for both his mainstream and his science fiction novels. Surface Detail is his next science fiction book as Iain M Banks and is a breathtaking achievment from an author whose body of work is without parallel in the modern history of science fiction.

Iain will be reading from Surface Detail and a Q&A session.
