Gabriel Krauze has an extraordinary presence. The British writer’s incendiary autobiographical novel, Who They Was, longlisted for the 2020 Booker Prize, tells the gripping story of a young man straddling two cultures: the university where he is studying English literature and the murky underworld of London gang warfare complete with drugs, guns and robberies. An eloquent and sharp-as-nails commentator on class, gangs and morality, Gabriel has captivated audiences on the international festival circuit. Now see him at WORD in conversation with Philip Matthews.
“A wild ride from the very first page.” – Douglas Stuart, Booker Prize-winning author of Shuggie Bain.
In association with Byron Writers Festival and Brisbane Powerhouse.
