London Literature Festival 1 - 18 July 2010

For those who can make it to London over the next couple of weeks, there is a lot - really a lot - to do at the London Literature Festival, which opened yesterday and goes on to 18 July. The range of the festival extends from the death throws of capitalism to the perfectibility of the human body, from parallel universes to poetry, from novels to neuroscience, plus Brazillian football, Congolese music and the aftermath of the civil war in Sierra Leone, and that's not the half of it. Some are free and some are not.
