One of Ireland's most beloved summer literary festivals returns to Bantry for a week of readings, workshops, and conversations with leading Irish and international writers. This year's programme spans fiction, poetry, memoir and translation, with events staged in venues across the town — from Bantry House to the Maritime Hotel and the town's independent bookshops.
