Banks, Elif Shafak, Jon Ronson, Andrea Levy, Mark Billingham, Neil Gaiman, Hardeep Singh Kholi, Owen Teale and Colin Salmon all gathered to perform for a crowd of book lovers.HiBROW was right at the heart of this most public of literary gatherings, filming the performances and talking exclusively to all of the writers involved. In conversation with HiBROW, many of these bestselling writers considered questions and ideas close to their hearts. Together, their thoughts offer a remarkable insight into the past, present and future of literature.
