With Maxine Peake, Maggie Gee and Sally Alexander.
Housmans Bookshop and Comma Press are delighted to host two online events with renowned British actors Christopher Eccleston and Maxine Peake reading from protest-inspired stories published in Comma’s History-into-Fiction series, Protest and Resist.

The two events will take place on two consecutive dates, with Christopher reading on the 9th of February and Maxine on the 10th. Both readings will be followed by a conversation between authors and historians discussing the events depicted in the stories read by Christopher and Maxine.

Maxine will be reading the story ‘Night Cleaners’ Strike’ by Maggie Gee from the Protest anthology.
