Diana Athill was one of publishing’s most respected editors, working with authors such as Philip Roth, John Updike, Simone de Beauvoir, V.S. Naipaul and Jean Rhys. Yet it was her own writing in the latter part of her life, right up to her death aged 101, that many will remember her for. A panel of close friends and colleagues including Damian Barr, Xandra Bingley and Claire Armistead join Erica Wagner to pay tribute to a remarkable life in letters.
A Celebration Of Diana Athill (L313) Sun 13 Oct 2019 4:00pm - 5:00pm Cheltenham Literature Festival Town Hall, Pillar Room £8 plus booking fee*
