Port Medway Readers' Festival 25-Aug-2018:
Peter Robinson
Peter Robinson is a national treasure in two nations – Canada and the U.K. He is the prolific and award-winning author of the literary Inspector Banks crime novels, which are set in Yorkshire. The books, which now number twenty-five, are gripping police procedurals that have been produced for ITV in the UK by Left Bank Pictures. Five series were produced and shown on PBS in North America. They are currently available on Hulu.
He has repeatedly won the Canadian Arthur Ellis Award for his novels and short stories, the Edgar Award for Missing in Action, France’s Le Grand Prix de Literature Policiere for In A Dry Season as well as awards in Denmark, the U.S., the U.K and Sweden. In addition to his 25 Banks novels, Peter has published two books of short stories and three other novels.
Peter has taught writing at the University of Toronto School of Continuing Studies and was Writer-in-Residence at the University of Windsor.
We are delighted to welcome him to his first visit to The Port Medway Readers’ Festival.
Peter will be reading from his latest Inspector Banks novel Careless Love.
