The Midlands Writers Trail will be launched on 8 August at the Midlands Literary Festival in Howick. Featured writers include Jenny Hobbs, Imraan Coovadia, John van der Ruit, Fred Khumalo and Wilbur Smith. Professor Lindy Stiebel will be discussing how the trail was developed and trail pamphlets and bookmarks will be available for those who attend.
Literary Tourism is tourism that deals with places and events from fictional texts as well as the lives of their authors. This could include following the route a fictional character charts in a novel, visiting particular settings from a story or tracking down the haunts of a novelist.
