On Saturday 12 September 2015, City Lit will host a celebration of published writers, poets and academics from City Lit and beyond.
On the same weekend, we will also be hosting the Seventh International George Moore Conference – and some of the talks from the conference are also included in the Literary Festival programme (the opening talks are on the evening of Friday 11 September).
Lots of interesting talks and presentations– including(for those who can’t get enough of Joyce) :

Toby Brothers: Ulysses and What should not be said…
What is obscene?
The banning of James Joyce’s Ulysses between 1922 through the 1930s opened up conversations on the nature of art, the role of censorship and the reading public’s ability to respond to highly provocative literary content. Appropriate for both readers and not-yet-readers of Joyce.
