Each year at the festival, leading fiction reviewer (Guardian, Observer, BBC, Evening Standard) Alex Clark selects some of her ‘ones to watch’. It’s a great way of discovering some of the hottest fiction of the year and hearing a mix of debut and established writers talk about the themes and ideas that drive them. This year, Harriet Lane (Alys, Always; Her), Anna Whitwham (Boxer Handsome), Tim Glencross (Barbarians) and Jessie Burton (The Miniaturist) are amongst the rising stars in this fascinating event.
