EXCLUSIVE Tracey Thorn premieres her new memoir - Literary Salon - Oct 2018

from The Literary Salon

Tracey Thorn returns to the Salon for the world premiere of her new memoir: Another Planet. Brooksmans Park is only 14 miles north of Kings Cross but might as well be Another Planet. Here people aspired to ‘a better class of bungalow’. Tracey returns to the scene of her 1970s childhood where ‘life was slow and very little happened, over and over again’ as her diary records. Turning on a beautifully wrought and unlikely axis of the elegiac and the entertaining, we meet Teenage Tracey. What was she like? Did she dream of becoming one of the world’s best-loved singer-songwriters? And will she get off with Mick from Harpenden again? Photo credit: Edward Bishop Learn more about your ad choices.
