Mystery, Spies & Great Literature: the Raymond Chandler Award 2025 Will Be Presented to Mick Herron at IULM
On December 4, the British author meets students and fans for a masterclass on contemporary noir
On December 4 at 11:00 AM, IULM’s Auditorium (IULM 6) will host the presentation of the Raymond Chandler Award 2025 to British author Mick Herron, creator of the acclaimed spy saga that inspired the TV series Slow Horses. The awarding is part of the programme of the Noir in Festival.
Following the award ceremony — which includes the presentation of the silver replica of the legendary “Brasher Doubloon” — Herron will lead a masterclass, introduced by Pro-rector Fabio Vittorini, and engage in a conversation with Adrian Wootton, CEO of Film London.
For IULM students, this will be a valuable opportunity to meet one of today’s most influential thriller writers and explore the narrative techniques that shape his work.
We welcome the university community and noir enthusiasts to attend.
