Great Big Book Club: I Remember Everything by Fiona Wilkes
Description
Fremantle Press are delighted to invite you to the launch of I Remember Everything, by Fiona Wilkes, as part of our 2026 Great Big Book Club series, hosted by Planet Books Mt Lawley.
I Remember Everything follows Billie, a young queer woman in 1980s Bristol, as she moves to London and navigates the highs and lows of life, coming out and finding her chosen family, only to lose them again during the AIDS epidemic. This is a story of queer joy, queer tragedy and the strength to love deeply.
Fiona will be in conversation with Fremantle Press publisher, Georgia Richter. Georgia joined Fremantle Press in 2008 as the fiction, narrative non-fiction and poetry publisher, and has an MA (Creative Writing) from the University of Western Australia.
