Books are terrifying!


'Books and all forms of writing are terror to those who wish to suppress the truth.' Wole Soyinka.

If you're ever tempted to think that words don't matter, go to www.freewordonline.com . It's the website of Free Word, based in London, which brings together writers, runs great evenings of literature and ideas, and shouts loud about the importance of free speech. On Friday 10 December they're hosting 'Into the mystic', a Yeats-fest, which I sadly can't make as I'll be playing my cello down here in Sussex.
