Two alerts for today, June 3:

At the Hay Festival Wales:

Bidisha and Michael Stewart
Bad Men and the Brontës
Sunday 3 June 2018, 4pm Venue: Starlight Stage

For almost two centuries, Jane Eyre and Wuthering Heights have constantly featured on lists of English literature’s most epic and affecting romances. This event brings together broadcaster Bidisha and novelist Michael Stewart to explore the real-life inspiration for the fascinating figures of Heathcliff and Rochester, examining whether they really are romantic heroes or whether the relationships in the novels show something much darker, and why, despite their flaws, they still appeal to readers today. Chaired by Remona Aly.
