Aye Write 2023! Lennie Goodings ‘A Bite of the Apple’

lennie goodings

Tuesday 23 May, 2023, 7.45 p.m. – 8.45 p.m.

Lennie Goodings joined Virago in the 1978 when “women wanted a voice, women wanted to understand their history, women wanted to see themselves on the page.” As an editor, she has worked with many of the finest writers of the last half-century, including Angela Carter, Maya Angelou, Marilynne Robinson, and Margaret Atwood and has won multiple awards for her pioneering work in publishing. Her memoir A Bite of the Apple offers a behind-the-scenes glimpse of the workings of a publishing house and explores the idea of idealistic publishing along with commercial considerations.

Lennie will be in conversation with Mairi Kidd, discussing the five books that have impacted her the most.

Glasgow Royal Concert Hall, 2 Sauchiehall Street, G2 3NY
