Deborah Moggach

On-stage talk as part of The Swindon Festival of Literature.

 

What happens, in your head and your heart, when you read a book? What happens when you watch a film? How do you turn a brilliant book into a fine film? What is lost, and what is gained? Any more questions?

 

Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature, poultry keeper, and author of 16 novels, Deborah Moggach has also become prolific in her adaptations of books into films. Her screen play for the film of Pride and Prejudice was nominated for a BAFTA and her TV screenplays include the award-winning adaptation of Goggle-Eyes.

 

Doors: 6.30pm
