Joe Dunthorne, Hanan Issa & Manon Steffan Ros: Wales in Words

Thursday 29 February 2024, 7 p.m. · 57 minutes

We celebrated an early St David's Day with a trio of Wales’s best contemporary writers. Novelist Joe Dunthorne, National Poet of Wales Hanan Issa and Carnegie prizewinning novelist and playwright Manon Steffan Ros explored the country’s literary history, shared its less-known treasures, and discussed the meaning of 'Welshness' today, in a one-off conversation with readings. The discussion was chaired by Darren Chetty.

This event was curated by Hay Festival as part of Wales Week in London.
