The Shearsman Reading Series was created in order to provide a regular venue for readings by Shearsman authors, past and present, and generally serves as a launch-pad for a newly-published volume. The series features mainly UK-based writers, but we do try to arrange for visiting authors from outside the country to be included wherever possible. Readings usually feature two authors.
