Fever of animals by Miles Allinson: 16 Feb, 2017

Miles has come to Europe on the trail of the Romanian surrealist who disappeared into a forest in 1967. In trying to unravel the mystery of Bafdescu’s secret life, Miles must also reckon with his own.

As he waits for someone who may never appear, Miles is chased by thoughts of his ex-girlfriend and the trip they took that ended their relationship. Fever of animals is, at its heart, a meditation on art and grief.

Miles Allinson will join us for a Q&A on Thursday, 9 February between 8 and 9pm. Please leave any questions you have below. (And discuss the book at your leisure!)
