Norfolk Reads and Writes: June 2007

Norfolk Reads & Writes is a fabulous two-month celebration of international writing for the readers and writers of Norfolk.

Are you in a reading group? Do you enjoy books? Have you ever wanted to meet the author of the book you’ve just read and ask questions fresh in your mind?

Xiaolu Guo, Hisham Matar and Daljit Nagra will be reading and meeting readers in Norfolk in May and June. Come along to the event nearest you, or join us in June when all three writers will be reading over the weekend of 23-24 June in the centre of Norwich.
