Have you planned any festival for the summer? I will be reading at a couple, more details later, watch this space. West Cork Literary festival didn't invite me yet (next year guys?) even with all my West Cork roots and in-laws but I'm not bitter, no. I am magnanimous.
From Sunday 17th to Saturday 23rd July, Bantry will
welcome a wonderful line-up of international and Irish writers.
Zadie Smith, John
Banville, Dame Marina Warner, Michael
Harding, Nick Laird, Carol Drinkwater and
Louis de Bernières are just some of the high profile writers.
This year there are readings by Caitriona Lally, Gavin McCrea, Louis de
Berniéres, Theo Dorgan, Sarah Howe, Jo Shapcott, Carol Drinkwater, Aiden
O'Reilly, Andrew Michael Hurley, Cónal Creedon, Afric McGlinchey, William Wall,
Thomas Morris, Max Porter, Carys Davies, Paddy Bushe, Matthew Sweeney, Lia
Mills, Alice Carey, Marion Coutts, Lisa McInerney, Danielle McLaughlin, Eoin
McNamee, Glenn Patterson, Joanna Walsh, Mary Morrissy and many more.
There are still some places on their workshops if you have a week.
More information can be found on their website www.westcorkliteraryfestival.ie
