Author Nikesh Shukla comes to Bristol Central Library

Author Nikesh Shukla will be dropping in at Bristol Central Library on Wednesday, October 3 at 6pm, to read from his work and take questions.
 
Author of the highly acclaimed novels Generation Vexed, and Coconut Unlimited, Shukla's witty style, wordplay and singular take on street culture has created a strong network of followers.
 
Coconut Unlimited was described by Metro as  "a riot of cringeworthy moments made real by Shukla’s beautifully-observed characters and talent for teen banter".
 
His writing has also featured on BBC 2 and Radio 4, in Esquire and on the Channel 4 Comedy Lab ‘Kabadasses’, starring Jack Doolan, Josie Long and Shazad.
 
Nikesh will be reading from his work at the event and taking questions from the audience. Tickets priced £3 are available on the door on a first-come, first-served, basis.

Councillor Guy Poultney, Cabinet Member for Communities said: "Bristol Libraries continue to attract top writing talent to the city. This promises to be a fantastic event with one of the country's most exciting young authors. It's brilliant to be able to welcome him to the city."
