KNYSNA NEWS FLASH - The 6th annual Knysna Literary Festival, presented by Pam Golding Properties Knynsa, kicks off on March 18 and continues until March 22, more splendid and exciting than before with an impressive line-up of authors and the biggest crowd yet expected to attend.

The festival is a five-day-long unique, literary "experience" offering attendees a diverse programme that includes small-group workshops, larger-group presentations, informal chats with authors and the opportunity to experience some of Knysna’s most exclusive private properties with a dash of fine cuisine while being with authors from South Africa and abroad.

Tickets for some of the interactive sessions with authors are already sold out.

Ling Dobson, franchisee and founder of Pam Golding Knysna and founder of the Knysna Literary Festival, told the Knysna-Plett Herald that she was very excited about this year. "We have selected an eclectic selection of writers from different walks who will talk 'outside their books' in wonderful venues."

The diverse programme touches on current affairs, politics, history and adventure.
