The fourth Chapter & Verse festival at the Bluecoat presents a breadth of literature which will a
ppeal to all those interested in the power of the word, spoken, written, reported and performed.
The Bluecoat will welcome over 40 writers working across the literature spectrum: novels, poetry, non-fiction, journalism, short stories, biographies, histories, children’s books, bookmaking, storytelling, comic books, spoken word performance, publishing and bookselling.
Bryan Biggs, Artistic Director at the Bluecoat said: “Some of this year’s events are responding to Liverpool’s theme for 2011, City of Radicals. We look at writers who have challenged the status quo in their work, from Malcolm Lowry to Bob Marley, to a new generation of spoken word innovators and writers getting beneath the surface of the turbulent political and economic times we are experiencing.
