New Welsh Review at the Dylan Thomas Festival 2009

I'll be in conversation with celebrated Swansea-based novelist Stevie Davies on 29th October at the Dylan Thomas Festival as part of our ongoing 21st anniversary celebrations. We'll be discussing Stevie's life and work, and looking ahead to her forthcoming novel, Into Suez. Stevie will also read from her work. We hope to see you there. More details will follow shortly.
