West Port Book Festival programme launch

The West Port Book Festival is running for the fourth year this weekend until Sunday 16 October 2011. The programme runs all afternoon and into the evening. Tickets can be obtained from Peter Bell Books.

The young and enthusiastic team has put together a diverse programme with talks by poets and writers, book binders allowing an insight into their work, dance lessons and much more.

Sonja Klein, a journalism student from Edinburgh Napier University, spoke with Peggy Hughes, the programme director, about the idea behind the festival and what there is to see and hear this weekend:-
