SUMMARY:Dinner with Rachel Joyce at The Hot House
DESCRIPTION:When: \nThursday\, November 23\, 2017 \n6.00 pm \nWhere: \nThe Hot House Restaurant & Bar \n35 Church Street \n\nPlease join Ben McNally and Double Day to celebrate the publication of Rachel Joyce’s latest novel\, The Music Shop.  \nTickets are $110.00\, for dinner and a copy of the book. We have moved our dinners to a new location\, so there are some changes. This event is in the library so seating is limited. Your ticket price at The Hot House includes a three-course dinner\, unlimited non-alcoholic drinks\, and all applicable taxes and service charge. There will be a cash bar. \nTickets must be purchased in advance. Call us (416.361.0032) to reserve your place. \n\n \nIt’s 1988. The CD has arrived. Sales of the shiny new disks are soaring on high streets in cities across the England. Meanwhile\, down a dead-end street\, Frank’s music shop stands small and brightly lit\, jam-packed with records of every kind. It attracts the lonely\, the sleepless\, the adrift. There is room for everyone. Frank has a gift for finding his customers the music they need.\nInto this shop arrives Ilse Brauchmann–practical\, brave\, well-heeled. Frank falls for this curious woman who always dresses in green. But Ilse’s reasons for visiting the shop are not what they seem.\nFrank’s passion for Ilse seems as misguided as his determination to save vinyl. How can a man so in tune with other people’s needs be so incapable of helping himself? And what will it take to show he loves her?\nThe Music Shop is a story about good\, ordinary people who take on forces too big for them. It’s about falling in love and how hard it can be. And it’s about music–how it can bring us together when we are divided and save us when all seems lost. \n\n \nRachel Joyce is the author of the Sunday Times and international bestsellers The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry\, The Love Song of Miss Queenie Hennessy\, and Perfect. The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry was short-listed for the Commonwealth Book Prize and long-listed for the Man Booker Prize and has been translated into thirty-six languages. Joyce was awarded the Specsavers National Book Awards New Writer of the Year in 2012. She is also the author of the digital short story A Faraway Smell of Lemon and is the award-winning writer of more than thirty original afternoon plays and classic adaptations for BBC Radio 4. Rachel Joyce lives with her family in Gloucestershire. \n000000
