Cambridge author Menna van Praag to launch new novel next month

The Cambridge branch of Waterstones will host the official launch of The Sisters Grimm on February 5.

Author Menna van Praag will be celebrating the release of her enchanting new novel – something of a fairytale for the modern age – The Sisters Grimm with a launch party that will include cakes and tea.

She will be in conversation with Amy Crawford and will be signing copies of the book the day before it is officially published.

Set in the heart of Cambridge, the novel is a tour-de-force of fairytale and imagination – a magical tale of life, death and sisterhood shot through with a spectacular, sometimes near-hallucinogenic sense of fear, wonder and hope.

The launch of The Sisters Grimm, Menna's sixth novel, will take place on Wednesday, February 5 at Waterstones from 6pm to 7.30pm.

Tickets: £5 (general admission) and £3 for Waterstones card holders.
