Octavia Bright is a writer, a 'talker', and the co-host of the Literary Friction podcast on NTS. A former Margate resident, she's back to celebrate the release of her electric new memoir, This Ragged Grace. 

Octavia will discuss the book, an open-hearted retelling of her experiences in addiction, loss and recovery set over seven stormy years of self-searching, in conversation with The Margate Bookshop's own Ryan J Smith.
