Things To Do In London This Weekend If You Like Comics

roomforlovewebTONIGHT:

Ilya is launching his new graphic novel at Gosh Comics tonight, Room For Love, published by SelfMadeHero. Wine and beer and good conversation from 7pm to 9pm.

"Romance is dead." So says Pamela Green, middle-class and middle-aged – a romance novelist suffering from writer's block. Then, on a bridge crossing over the river, her unsettled life collides with that of a ragged young man. He's survived for months on London's streets, by his wits…and his looks. Under extraordinary circumstances Pamela invites him into her comfortable suburban home. There, in spite of their obvious differences, they soon come to form an unlikely partnership, once separate lives revived in stark new directions…

An intense hothouse drama, fierce, true to life, ROOM FOR LOVE is an Original Graphic Novel unafraid to play with fire."
