Join us as we take Identity on Tour. Two evenings, two cities, with a different third voice in each room.

A magazine and a novel, in conversation about who we are.

We're moving past stereotypes and tidied-up versions of representation, and instead celebrating "the messy middle" — with all of its contradictions.
