Double whammy on Shelf Life this week: Demi Anter is a spoken-word poet and Pip Finkemeyer is a novelist.

Demi and Pip are leading a writing class on fact and fiction on August 13 in Berlin, and on August 21 in London.

Interests include erotic fiction, their favourite sad girl novelists and how fact and fiction often intermingle in their own work. Ex-boyfriends beware.

Reading list:

Their own work Small Machine by Demi Anter and Sad Girl Novel by Pip Finkemeyer; A Manual for Cleaning Women by Lucia Berlin; Know My Name by Chanel Miller; everything by John Berger, Maggie Nelson, Sally Rooney, Lydia Davis.
