In the town that was home to Henry James and E.F. Benson, join us for a celebration of hidden queer histories illuminated in contemporary queer stories.

With poet and performer Joelle Taylor, whose collection Cunto + Othered Stories won the TS Eliot Prize 2022, Costa Prize shortlisted writer and director Neil Bartlett, whose mosaic novel Address Book was published in 2021, and Sam Kenyon, writer of the RSC’s Miss Littlewood, whose debut novel I Am Not Raymond Wallace is published in September.

Expect live readings and lively discussion. Chaired by Nathan Evans, editor of Inkandescent—shortlisted for Small Press of 2022 in the British Book Awards.
