IN PERSON Celebrating Literary Treasures: Ten Years of the BACW

At the University of East Anglia, home of the UK’s oldest Creative Writing MA programme and of the world-renowned literary festival UEA Live, there lives a small archive service packed with literary treasures. The British Archive for Contemporary Writing (BACW) is the writer’s archive, with collections from Nobel Prize winner Doris Lessing, global best sellers Lee Child and Naomi Alderman, innovative poets Joelle Taylor and Jay Bernard and beloved nature writers like Mark Cocker and Roger Deakin. Hear the stories behind the stories and discover what we are doing to save writers’ archives now for future generations.

This free talk will take place in person in the Heritage Meeting Room, Norfolk Heritage Centre (on the second floor of the Norfolk and Norwich Millennium Library) and will also be livestreamed.

Booking is essential. To attend in person, book here at norfolkheritagecentre.eventbrite.co.uk or email [email protected].
