We're reaching out because we have Paterson Joseph planning some trips to the US soon, and we thought you might be a good fit for his American tour. Whenever we can, we like to reach out to hosts in an author's travel path, just in case there's an opportunity to expand the visit and reach as many audiences as we can.

Paterson Joseph is a beloved British actor and writer. Recently seen on Vigil, Naughts + Crosses and Boat Story, he has also starred in The Leftovers and Law & Order UK and he plays Arthur Slugworth in the new Wonka movie. The Secret Diaries of Ignatius Sancho is his debut novel, and is a story that begins on a slave ship in the Atlantic and ends at the very center of London life. . . . A lush and immersive tale of adventure, artistry, romance, and freedom set in eighteenth-century England and based on the true story of the first Black person to vote in Britain, who lead the fight to end slavery. Joseph channels the writing style of the day and draws on the real-life Sancho’s diaries to give voice to his hero’s rich interior life. | |

Paterson Joseph’s Sancho is a joy to read as much for the riveting and full portrait of a historical figure’s interior life as for the page-turning tale. Joseph navigates this wonderfully entertaining story with intelligence and verve. The real Sancho composed a life of music and service; Joseph renders his life as art.”
