World Book Night Eve in Trafalgar Square. Were you there?
Posted by Elise Dillsworth in Blog, Events and Appearances
I was, along with many others who braved the cold. The stellar line up of authors included our own Margaret Atwood and Sarah Waters.
The following evening I attended another World Book Night event at Hornsey Library, featuring two more wonderful Virago authors. Gillian Slovo interviewed Linda Grant about her novel, We Had it So Good. Not quite the numbers that thronged Trafalgar Square but packed out nonetheless!

Yes! I came to the launch. It was brilliant. I've never witnessed anything like it and the crowd were so attentive. I was especially pleased that David Nicholl's One Day got such a warm reception as it was favourite read of 2010.
I'm hoping the administration behind the scenes for the givers will run smoother next time, if this is ever repeated again, which I hope it will be, as the ethos is a wonderful one – and with sales of books falling, I hope this will remind people while books are so important.. x
