Griffin Books hosts event with rugby legend Alun Wyn Jones

By Guest

2nd Sep 2021 | Local News

Penarth's indie bookshop Griffin Books will be holding an their first in-person event since March 2020 later this month, with rugby legend Alun Wyn Jones.

The event will take place on Monday 27 September at 7.00pm, in the Hilton Hotel, Cardiff.

Alun Wyn Jones is the most-capped rugby union player of all time, as well as one of Wales' most successful sportsmen.

He has a new autobiography, 'Belonging', being published later this month, which details the story of what it takes to become a player who is seen by many as one of the greatest Welsh players there has ever been.

What it takes to go from sitting, crossed legged on the hall floor at school, watching the 1997 Lions Tour of South Africa to being named the 2021 Lions Captain.

But is it also about perthyn - belonging, playing for Wales, working your way through the age-grades and the club matches and regional sides.

This is a rare opportunity to hear Alun speak at length and with candour about his life before rugby, and his path to success.

Everyone who books for this event will receive a SIGNED INDIE EXCLUSIVE copy of 'Belonging' with a beautiful sprayed edge, worth £20.
