We are delighted to announce a new book launch by author and journalist James Debens as a part of collaboration with Folkestone publisher Afsana Press.
You are warmly invited to join theatre director and avid reader Giles Croft in conversation with James about his latest book “Old Masters In Marrakesh” still hot of the press. This is his second book after his debut novel “Where is Your God Now” (2021)
James Debens a writer and journalist, currently an editor at Newsweek. After his Classics degree at Gonville & Caius, Cambridge University, and journalism postgraduate qualifications at University of London, James joined the Mirror Group. He has later written for various newspapers and a trio of magazine publishing houses.
Afsana Press an independent publishing house producing sparkling literary works by authors whose stories have a direct relation to social, political or cultural issues in countries and communities around the world.
Our mission is to get to the heart of the urgent matters of our time, and times past, asking important questions about migration and refugees, the environment, gender, development and social justice. Particular attention will go to the work of authors in exile, and our stories often concern the movement of humans in an ever-shifting, dangerous world. All this without taking a certain political direction – we simply want to ask, why, how, where and who, always through profoundly human stories.
