Join us for a 10th anniversary celebration event to open the festival with a stellar panel of international and national writers who have dedicated their lives to their love of literature - Andrew O’Hagan, Anna Goldsworthy, Siang Lu and Sophie Gee. They will share their reflections on the formative books that shaped them, insights into their writing lives, and hopes and fears for the book at this moment in human history. We invite you to come along and honour the precious books you love - the ones that struck a chord when you were a kid, the ones printed on your heart.
