This play is a hit. Absorbing, entertaining, and moving. The kind of play that makes the @NationalTheatre the great showcase of new drama that it is. Congratulations to everyone involved in #UnderdogTheOtherOtherBronte
#UnderdogTheOtherOtherBrontë rehearsals are officially under way 🙌
Opens in the Dorfman Theatre 27 March. With @northernstage.

I hope you can come to the UK to promote #CityinRuins @donwinslow so that your British readers can show their appreciation for your outstanding career
#CityInRuins is my final novel. It is the product of 28 years of work and has been called "The Godfather for our generation"
It would mean a great deal to me if you would RT this.
