Life-Writers of London is a monthly colloquium for postgraduates and early career researchers to engage in lively debate touching upon contemporary and interdisciplinary life-writing topics. The three sessions in each term feature a pairing of a speaker and selected short readings. In our discussions we explore the craft and practice of life-writing as well as critical modes of reading. The sessions last approximately two hours, with wine and nibbles provided. Afterwards, join us for informal conversation at the pub!
In autumn 2015, we will be following up on the After-Image conference with a ‘Season of Celebrity!’ Our speakers will be:
5 October: Deborah Jermyn (Roehampton)
16 November: Tom F. Wright (Sussex)
7 December: Josh Cohen (Goldsmiths)
