The Great Debate (Free Festival Finale)
About
The hero gets the glory, but it’s often the villain who steals the show. For our free festival finale, six of our fearless authors will go head-to-head in a battle of wits, bookish smarts, and persuasion, to debate whether:The Villain Is More Interesting Than The Hero.
Join us for a session packed with stimulating arguments, unexpected twists and plenty of literary fun.
Hosted by the festival’s incomparable patron, Michael Robotham, our two teams will fight for dominance and bragging rights in this session not to be missed.
Team Villain: Sarah Bailey, Michael Brissenden, Petronella McGovern
Team Hero: Jane Caro, Joshua Hortinela, Sue Williams
While the debate is free, bookings are essential to reserve a seat.
