Anna Bosch and Giles Tremlett talk to Debbi Christophers

Mutual Attraction: United Kingdom and Spain through culture

Segovia 2024, 

"Spain is obsessed with British culture", "British writers can’t get enough of Spanish history". Two writers who have lived in and written about each other’s countries will consider whether these truisms hold water. We will look at where this mutual fascination comes from, where it’s going and the role of culture in the wider UK/Spain relationship. Anna Bosch is a journalist for RTVE, specialising in international news. She has been correspondent in London, Washington and Madrid, is co-author of Europa soy yo and author of El año que llegó Putin. Giles Tremlett is an author, journalist and biographer based in Madrid. He has written six narrative non-fiction books and biographies that have been published in the US, UK and Spain. A former foreign correspondent, he has travelled widely across Iberia, the Maghreb and Latin America.

The discussion will be moderated by Debbi Christophers, cultural attaché at the British Embassy in Madrid.

At the end of the event, the authors will sign copies of their books
