Festival 2007

Lynne Segal & Michele Roberts

Lynne Segal made her name as a feminist activist, writer and scholar.  Her latest book Making Trouble: Life & Politics reclaims 1970s feminism from the many hell-bent on denying it ever existed.  Writer and broadcaster, Michele Roberts offers a personal viewpoint in her memoir Paper Houses - the experiences of a young woman determined to break free from a conventional middle-class, close-knit family, carve her own place in the world and earn her living as a writer. A very personal event with two great writers.
