A perfect night out with a friend, a lover, your entire book club, your nephew, your neighbour or just a solo night to yourself. Expect strong language and adult content, gift-wrapped in her much-loved poetry as she reads about love, loss, friendship, wolves, croissants, and as much sticky toffee pudding as you can manage.
