Celebrate the season of Dickens and the last month of his bicentenary year at this event presented by the Writers' Guild of Great Britain in association with The Reader Organisation, which will consider exactly how influential his work is to contemporary writers. A guest panel of leading and emerging writers ranging from novelists to screenwriters working in theatre, film, television and radio will be discussing the relevance of Dickens to their own work, as well as thinking about why his writing remains so relevant and appealing to today's readers.
