Octavia Bright in conversation - Canterbury

This Ragged Grace is the story of Octavia's recovery from alcohol addiction, and the parallel journey of her father's descent into Alzheimer's. This memoir of life in Margate and London is ‘an electrifying book about loss, chaos, addiction and death, and the wild work of staying tender in the face of it’ - OLIVIA LAING. ‘A soul-expanding masterpiece -’ DOLLY ALDERTON
The intelligence of the writing is a kind of grace in itself - light and deep and beautiful - DEBORAH LEVY
Octavia often hosts Radio 4’s Open Book. Her PhD was on hysteria and desire in Spanish cinema. This Ragged Grace is now in paperback at £10.99
