Easy Beauty by Chloé Cooper Jones blends journalism, philosophy and memoir to examine the difficulties of living in a body. Easy Beauty is a glaringly honest memoir of a life lived with a visible and painful disability. Geoff Dyer’s latest book, The Last Days of Roger Federer is an examination of endings through the lenses of Bob Dylan, Beethoven, Burning Man, and much more besides. ‘Even with no idea of where, when, or how things might end up it was time to start work-on a book that ended up being written while life as we know it came to an end.’ Geoff Dyer Author and RSL Fellow Geoff Dyer is joined by Chloé Cooper Jones to discuss sporting matches and everyday battles failure and triumph what it means and what it takes to live life to the full, and when and how to bow out. Join us for a good conversation that will, in part, also be about tennis. It’s often said that a good conversation is like a game of tennis. Please register to receive a viewing link on the day.
