Events - Festival 2021

If you’re looking to discover new favourite poets or to learn about writers you thought you knew from surprising angles, then our Past & Present sessions are the thing for you. For today’s event we’re partnering up with the Berlin-based event series and podcast, The Dead Ladies Show, who celebrate women who were fabulous when they were alive. In this special Dead Ladies Show/Past & Present crossover, writer Anneke Lubkowitz talks about the prolific Annette von Droste-Hülshoff, a nineteenth-century German poet, composer and literary loner who once graced the 20 Deutschmark note.
