Good conversation and excellent food are the hallmark of the new literary salon we are introducing this year. There will be lots of authors – including Deborah Harkness, Peter York, Martin Kemp, Ken Hom, Madhur Jaffrey and Jerome Burne – but no talks. Instead, guests are invited to join in a conversation with our invited writers about anything that takes their fancy and to enjoy a traditional Sardinian meal cooked by chefs at Woodstock’s La Galleria restaurant. It harks back to the traditional idea of a salon where guests can exchange thoughts and ideas and enjoy themselves in good and stimulating company.
This is a new departure for the festival and it promises to be an evening with a difference. Most of the writers will be appearing at the festival and will be happy to discuss their work or issues of the day. The price of the event includes a full Sardinian menu and wine, featuring antipasti, main course and dessert.
