Two Augusts In A Row In A Row’ is a love letter between generations of queer people. Set in New York City in 2001, we follow Phillip—a gender subversive drag king in search of grace and magic—through rich, sad, humorous language that is singularly Shelley Marlow’s. Marlow will read from ‘Two Augusts In A Row In A Row’ and an excerpt from a new work in progress.

This artist’s edition of the novel, first issued by Publication Studio Hudson with letterpress printed covers in 2018, is handmade here by Publication Studio London in collaboration with London Centre for Book Arts It features 24 colour and black-and-white reproductions of pen and ink drawings, watercolours and paintings by the author, bound in purple covers with a holographic foil.
