"a British phenomenon that is going global..."
Well now! Do we agree Vancouver and Adelaide? This is the view of Tatler Editor Geordie Greig, in a recent piece in the Sunday Times. He counts 207 literary festivals in the UK alone, and points to some new ones coming up in Morocco and Goa, India. He also makes the remarkable claim that 24 couples married after meeting at the Hay Festival. Now there's a selling point!
«Good festivals are like W. H. Auden’s definition of poetry: 'To be like some valley cheese, local, but prized everywhere.'»
