The Launch of I Wanted To Quit Too at Abbey Road Studios by Hussain Manawer
Setting up in Studio 2 at the infamous Abbey Road Studios in London to shot an adrenaline fuelled avalanche of non-stop portraits.
Within a week of this launch event, Hussain's latest anthology made a huge dent in The Sunday Times Best Sellers list, with his first book Life is Sad and Beautiful following suit and being back in the charts the following week. To me that is like being a double world champion.
I Wanted To Quit Too might just be one of the most important books you will ever read. Ninety contributors from across the globe, from every walk of life, tell their story, not to quit, but to inspire.
And in the words of Chidera Eggarue, herself a No.1 Sunday Times best seller "This is what community looks like".
I could not agree more.
