CloseEnglish PEN and Index on Censorship in conversation with Professor Maureen Freely.
Jo Glanville, editor of Index on Censorship, will join Carole Seymour-Jones, Chair of English PEN’s Writers in Prison Committee, and Lisa Appiganesi, President of English PEN in conversation with Professor Maureen Freely.
This event will preview special December issues of Index On Censorship and English PEN’s magazine which celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of the Writers in Prisons campaign.
With their combined legacies of campaigning for oppressed writers around the world, this panel discussion promises an eye-opening debate on human rights. Expect to be challenged by issues affecting writers in war-torn countries, as well as at home in the UK and other supposedly free Western nations.
