About this event

Join Joseph Coelho as they speak about the Carnegie shortlisted The Boy Lost in the Maze.

In his new verse novel, Joseph Coelho brilliantly blends Greek myth with a 21st-century quest.

In Ancient Greece Theseus makes a dangerous and courageous journey to find his father, finally meeting the Minotaur in the Labyrinth. While Theo, a modern-day teenage boy, finds himself on a maze-like quest to find his own father. Each story tells of a boy becoming a man and discovering what true manhood really means. The path to self-discovery takes Theo through ‘those thin spaces where myth, magic and reality combine’. Doubts, difficulties and dangers must be faced as Theo discovers the man he will become.
