Writers will be travelling to Manchester from as far afield as North Africa, the Middle East, Europe and the United States to take part in our third festival, organised in association with CityLife.co.uk. We'll also be showcasing plenty of local talent at our Festival Hub. With events ranging from Past Crimes to A Place for Romance and literature in translation to children’s fiction, the programme caters for all literary tastes.”



Join our panel of popular novelists for a passionate discussion about the place of romance in contemporary literature, chaired by Sherry Ashworth.


Mavis Cheek is the author of thirteen novels including Mrs Fytton’s Country Life, Janice Gentle Gets Sexy and, most recently, Amenable Women, which was described in The Times as ‘a brilliantly funny, warm, intelligent read’. Earlier this year Christina Jones won the Pure Passion Award for Love Potions, and her novel Heaven Sent was shortlisted for the Melissa Nathan Award for Comedy Romance. Mills & Boon lead author Penny Jordan has published over a hundred and sixty novels, including the phenomenally successful A Perfect Family, To Love Honour and Betray, The Perfect Sinner and Power Play, which hit The Sunday Times and New York Times best-seller lists.
