The Eccles British Library Writer's Award Festival We hope to be joined by all 12 of the holders of the Eccles British Library Writer's Award for a one-night mini literary festival celebrating their work and reflecting on their engagement with the Library's collections. The authors will be in discussion with Philippa Thomas (BBC World). The event will be divided into two parts: the first reflecting on Culture, Science and American contexts with Bob Stanley; Will Atkins; Olivia Laing; Erica Wagner; Andrea Wulf and Sheila Rowbotham. The second will consider Literary explorations of America with Hannah Kohler; Alison MacLeod; Sarah Churchwell; Ben Markovits; John Burnside and Naomi Wood.
