We’re delighted to welcome you to the online launch for John Greening’s latest collection, From the East, hosted by fellow Renard poet Ruth Irwin. Join us for a stimulating evening of discussion and readings!
Join Reshma Ruia, author of award-winning novel Still Lives, in conversation with Bee Rowlatt at the Jaipur Literature Festival.
Literary explorer Ann Morgan, based in Folkestone, set herself a year-long challenge to read a book from every country. In Reading the World she records her quest. Crossing Over tells the story of an encounter between an 87-year-old Kent coast resident with dementia and a traumatised Malawian migrant hiding in her barn.
Ann will be talking to author Maggie Butt about her lifelong endeavour to champion the sharing of stories from across the globe.
Join us on Google Meets for the long-awaited launch of the anthology of the inaugural Curae Prize!
