The fourth annual Reading Agency lecture

Director of Liberty and civil liberties campaigner Shami Chakrabarti, CBE, follows in the footsteps of comedian Russell Brand and internationally renowned authors Jeanette Winterson and Neil Gaiman to give The Reading Agency’s fourth annual lecture On Liberty, Reading and Dissent’. Initiated by national charity The Reading Agency in 2012, the prestigious lecture aims to provide a platform for leading writers and thinkers to share original, challenging ideas about reading and libraries as we explore how to create a reading culture in a radically changed 21st century landscape.
