The Moth (2014 event)
To celebrate the UK launch of their first book, which collects together 50 of their best stories, we invited The Moth, the legendary US storytelling organisation, to create a special one-off evening of stories inspired by our strand of events, Conversations with Ourselves. True stories were told live by comedian and author Omid Djalili, pharmacist Navreet Chawla, clinical psychologist Rufus May and winner of the Wellcome Book Prize, author Andrew Solomon. The event was hosted by Scottish writer and comedian, Lynn Ferguson and filmed live at the 2014 Edinburgh International Book Festival.
