About This Event

Lisa Robertson and Iain Sinclair will discuss Robertson's latest book, Riverwork, on 12 November 2026 at the London Review Bookshop. The book explores themes of urban history and disappearance, centring on the Bièvre River in Paris. The event will start promptly at 7 p.m.

Lisa Robertson & Iain Sinclair: Riverwork

Paris-based Canadian poet and novelist Lisa Robertson’s latest book Riverwork (https://www.londonreviewbookshop.co.uk/stock/riverwork-lisa-robertson) centres on Lucy Frost, an insomniac cleaning woman researching and documenting a series of interwoven disappearances, most notably that of the Bièvre River, once the core of Paris’s textile industry but now buried beneath the city’s streets. Lisa Robertson will be in conversation with author Iain Sinclair, another excavator of hidden urban histories.

Please note: our events start promptly at 7 p.m., so please arrive in good time. St. JOHN (https://www.londonreviewbookshop.co.uk/st.-john-at-the-bookshop)next door will be open until 6.55 p.m. for wine, house cocktails and snacks.
