Description
Books Unbound Literary Festival offers something for everyone with two days of exciting talks and interactive forums across a wide range of topics set to educate, challenge and appeal to all interests.
We are a non-profit-making community event, supporting the incredible work of local charity Doorstep Library literacy initiatives in local state primary school Lena Gardens and the bursary programme at Godolphin & Latymer.
After each author's talk they will be available for a book-signing in the festival's pop-up bookshop.
