About Cardiff Literary Salon:


A literary gathering in an informal setting, the Cardiff Literary Salon sees top writers read or perform their work, and discuss their practice with 'notable bohemian' Susie Wild. Questions are then opened up to the audience for discussion and good conversation. After the talk the revellers can enjoy the relaxed, informed but informal environment to meet with publishers, writers, agents and fellow book lovers to discuss writing, culture and ideas.


Looking forward to seeing you on the night :)


Cardiff Literary Salon occurs in association with Sherman Cymru, who are wonderful supporters and advocates of new writing in Wales.


The May 2012 session is kindly supported by Literature Wales.
