Authors John Grindrod and Lynsey Hanley will discuss the importance of English Modernism

Join John Grindrod and Lynsey Hanley in conversation about the perception of modernism in Britain in the post-war period, and in particular how this has largely been a conversation devoted to Brutalist architecture. John Grindrod is the author of Concretopia: A Journey Around the Rebuilding of Postwar Britain, and Outskirts: Living Life on the Edge of the Green Belt.​ Lynsey Hanley is the author of Estates: an Intimate History and Respectable: Crossing the Class Divide, and is a visiting fellow in cultural history at Liverpool John Moores University.
