The Bind Launch Party with William Goldsmith

About

Gosh! is proud to celebrate the release of William Goldsmiths latest book The Bind with a spectacular launch party at Gosh! Come celebrate and grab a drink on us from 7- 9pm on Monday the 17th of August.

William Goldsmith is a writer and illustrator based in Glasgow. His first graphic novel Vignettes of Ystov, was nominated for the Newton First Book Award at Edinburgh International Book Festival. It told the stories of the interlocking lives of 'Ystov' inhabitants - an Eastern European city of the imagination. His second book The Bind is a book about books. It centres around the tale of two brothers Victor and Guy Egret, and explores the rise and fall of there family business - the once prestigious London bookbinders Egret Bindings.

Random House says 'In 1910 brothers Guy and Victor Egret take on an ambitious commission: a deluxe, jewelled binding of a collection of poems, A Moonless Land. It proves to be a moment of hubris. The work triggers their ruin, watched by the disapproving spirit of their father, Garrison Egret. A darkly humorous tale of sibling rivalry and creative one-upmanship, The Bind shows once again that William Goldsmith is an incomparable storyteller and a marvellously inventive artist.' 

William will be with us on 7- 9pm on Monday the 17th of August where we’ll be raising a glass to the release of The Bind. If you can’t make it along to the launch party but would like us to have a book put aside for you then get in touch via info@goshlondon.com and we can arrange that for you.

As usual, we’ll also be offering a mail order service and can post signed books to you anywhere in the UK for a flat rate of £5 with international quotes available on request.
