| Sumario: | The article highlights the 2007 Auckland Writers Festival in New Zealand. The author recalls the performance of Shane Koyczan, a Canadian poet, on a full house in the Aotea Centre's NZI Lower Room. It is noted that the pillar of the festival is that onstage chat where one or more writers provide a little bit of reading, a few questions from the floor and the bulk of the time given over to unscripted conversation. The author commends Kapka Kassabova's chairing for writer Pico Iyer and Ian Wedde for author Vikram Chandra. |
