Stratford-upon-Avon is one of the UK’s premiere literary cities, thanks in large part to its associations with the Bard. The RSC keeps Shakespeare’s memory alive, as does the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust, but more of a modern draw is the Stratford Literary Festival.
Bringing some of the nation’s best and brightest writers to the ancient town twice throughout the year, here’s exactly what to expect from the autumn edition of Stratford Literary Festival 2024.
