The internationally acclaimed writer will take to the stage at Sheffield’s Montgomery Theatre on Monday 18 May, headlining the event for Off the Shelf Festival of Words.

Hosted by celebrated poet and author Helen Mort, Haig will be discussing his highly anticipated new novel, The Midnight Train.

Haig’s new novel is set in the same universe as his global phenomenon, The Midnight Library, and will follow similar themes of magic and time-travelling love stories.

The Midnight Library sold over 12 million copies worldwide, has been translated into over 50 languages, spent 10 weeks in the UK Top Ten, and topped the New York Times Bestseller list.

Described as one of the most influential voices in modern literature, Haig will offer the people of Sheffield a first look at his newest venture.
