Can't make it to the Hay Festival Winter Weekend 2024? Don't worry because Jersey Library are bringing some of the festival here via livestream through our partnership with the British Library Living Knowledge Network.

Part of the Hay Festival Winter Weekend 2024, we will be showing a livestream of Ali Smith in conversation with Sarah Wood. Ali Smith, the winner of awards including the Orwell Prize and the Women’s Prize, often plays with form and structure in her books, and continues her innovative storytelling in Gliff, which is the first of two new interconnected novels. Join Smith for an insight into the world of Gliff, which nods to dystopian fiction and the Kafkaesque, and is a new take on the notion of classic.
