The Love Of Literature Comes To Cuckfield

The Love Of Literature Comes To Cuckfield

This month, a love of literature is being celebrated in Mid Sussex as Cuckfield welcome for a third year to the village it’s book festival which will begin Thursday, October 3 at much-loved Borde Hill.

Festival visitors are invited to test their literary knowledge at a quiz at The Talbot in Cuckfield’s
High Street on the Thursday night which promises to be an extremely convivial, competitive evening.

Ockenden Manor is once again the venue for what should be an intriguing evening with Robin Ince, well known for his joint hosting with Brian Cox of the BBC Radio 4 programme The Infinite Monkey Cage.

On Saturday, October 5, the Old School will feature events for youngsters with local author, Pat Hegarty whose book Moon is an apt title for 2019 as the world marks the 50th anniversary of the moon landing.

Cuckfield Bookfest 2019 will celebrate authors on subjects such as royalty, mindfulness, and politics, and authors attending include Jenni Murrray, Penelope Lively, John Crace, Andrew Lownie, and Rachel Hore.
