ART INTERVENTION
Spinning Crouch End Dreams
Hilanda, a spatial private detective looking for clues in the fleeting experiences of city life arrives in North London. From Tuesday 14th June, you’ll find her outside Hornsey Town Hall, inviting passers-by to write a dream on the tape, which will continue inside the Town Hall, mapping the entire ground floor of this iconic landmark, until the tape forms a chain of dreams. The chain is removed on the afternoon of June 18th, resulting in a small sculpture memory of this corner of London and the Town Hall.

LITERATURE
Alejandro Madrigal presents Days of Rage
Fresh out of medical school, a young doctor goes to work in Coyoxiltepec, a small, forgotten, town in the middle of nowhere, to practice medicine with the best of intentions to make a difference to the community. He will find a town overwhelmed by violence and corruption, where the community uses fantasy, indifference and tolerance as their only way of surviving. This inspiring and heartfelt novel brings alive charming town characters, whilst recounting both the physical illness and moral disease that affects a fictional community in the beautiful but fierce and chaotic Mexico.
Alejandro Madrigal is a Mexican-British world-recognised academic and award-winning researcher in the field of stem cell transplantation, who combines his technical expertise and own experiences with a vivacious imagination, to brilliantly present his opera prima.
