Cultural Exchanges ... my first thoughts were of
events from around the world. I imagined myself listening to music from India, watching African
dancing and eating large amounts of FREE Chinese and Japanese food.
It was not to be. In the absence of a culinary feast, I decided my best bet would be a book launch and a talk from Rohan
Silva, who is a policy advisor to the Prime Minister. Politics is a keen interest of mine. Alas, the talk has been cancelled.
The two book
launches I've booked look pretty interesting too. Matt Carr's book is
about the mass purges of Muslims from Spain from the 15th to the 17th century while American Michael Heller is launching his Collected Poems. Both should
be interesting and I'd like to talk to each author about the process of
putting a book together.
The Rohan Silva event would have been right up my street. As for the rest, I guess I'll just mingle and
let it sink in. The atmosphere of the week is sure to be good.
