Hello,
The programme for the new Festival is out and available to download from www.aspectsfestival.co.uk . All events take place at the end of September in Bangor.
A couple of events that might be of interest include our closing party with Cherry Smyth (Lagan Press/Poetry Editor of Brand magazine) along with Pat Boran (Editor-Dedalus Press)-this is on Sunday 28th September at 7 pm in the Royal Hotel.Our opening event is Michael Longley on Wednesday 24th September.
The other event is the Publishers Book Fair-here's some info
Aspects is also very pleased to present the one and only book fair in Northern Ireland, featuring established and emerging publishing houses from the North and South of Ireland including, Guildhall Press, Salmon Poetry, Doire Press, Hag’s Head Press, Summer Palace Press, Abbey Press, Blackstaff Press, The FeldStein Agency, Stinging Fly Press, Poetry Ireland, Lagan Press and New Island. This is the first time Northern Ireland has seen a dedicated Irish book fair, and we hope that it will be the first of many-it will be a great opportunity to listen to writers including Rosemary Jenkinson, Lesley Richardson and Mike Faulkner read from their work and talk about their experiences in the literary world. Susan Feldstein of The Feldstein Agency will also give a short talk on the world of publishing. Taking place on Saturday 27th between 11am and 5pm, it will, we hope, prove a real highlight for local writers.
Hope this is all of some interest-there is contact info on the website should you need any more information.
