Margaret Atwood/Mark Haddon

To celebrate WBN, the Southbank Centre hosts a bill of writers, poets and musicians, topped by the Canadian author, critic and environmental activist Atwood, alongside Haddon, the author of the affecting novel 'The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time'. Also making an appearance will be budding literary talents Stuart Evers, Joe Dunthorne, Rebecca Hunt and fast emerging south London author Evie Wyld. There will also be book swaps, mass reading groups and literary speed dating.
