Small Wonder Short Story Festival
Small Wonder, the short story festival in the
UK, is taking place again this year in Charleston, East Sussex, between 19 and
23 September.
The four-day festival will involve readings, discussions
and dramatic performance, as well as a two-day creative writing workshop,
an Open University short story surgery and “the UK’s premier Short Story
Slam”.
Participants in the festival include Monica Ali, Jenny
Diski, Esther Freud, Etgar Keret, Jon Snow, Colm Toibin and Fay Weldon.
'The best literary
festival I have ever attended.’
