Honno Welsh Women's Press in conversation

Join us in welcoming authors Sophie Buchaillard, Catrin Kean and Meredith Miller for a discussion celebrating women in literature. This conversation will be chaired by Honno Welsh Women's Press, the longest running independent feminist press in the UK.

Strong female characters: What does it mean in today's literature and why is the representation of women still a hill to climb in books today? In a social climate that seems to be clawing back on women's rights, what responsibility does literature have for future freedoms?

In their latest novels, authors Sophie Buchaillard, Catrin Kean and Meredith Miller have delved into womanhood and feminism in a changing world and come together to discuss the importance of women in literature both on and behind the page. In conversation with Honno, the longest running independent feminist press in the UK, the evening will be a lively, inspirational and sometimes rebellious talk celebrating and exploring the strong female characters and everything beyond.

 

This event will inspire writers of all sexes to question the boundaries of women in literature and will challenge readers to look beyond tropes and stereotypes to demand more from their books.
