The event is scheduled to be held between May and July at the South Bank Centre and gathers many celebrated authors, poets and critics and speakers who are well versed in this wonderful art of creative expression and fans can look forward to an excellent combination of events from book readings to speeches to exhibitions that spans throughout a week. The series of five lectures by the celebrated author Claire Tomalin is going to provide much interest to the lovers of old classics as the lectures are going to be based on the works of Thomas Hardy and Jane Austen. Fans of the bestselling authors Barbara Kingsolver, Lioner Shriver, James Salter would need to do much to contain their excitement as their idols are going to be present in person, discussing their work. Yet another highlight of the event will definitely be the prize book reading of the nominees for the Man Booker of the year which includes a reading from the Israeli writer and Holocaust survivor, Apharon Applefeld’s work. The festival will include ten such readings from works of the ‘world’s 10 best writers’ which are all contending for this prize. Giving a slightly different and glamorous touch to the event is the guided tour around London’s famous jewellery garden- Hatton garden by author Rachel Lichtenstein. In addition to the renowned authors, the celebrities joining the discussion on their love of literature will be designer Tom Dixon, actor Rupert Everett and fine artists Cornelia parker and Gavin Turk. A more sentimental touch to the event will be added by the singing of some Pablo Neruda’s love poems by one of the visiting musicians.
