Marina Warner
5 May 2026 – The Country of Words, Birkbeck Arts Week event + workshop
April 22, 2026
Julia Bell’s new book, Between the Lines, explores the creative writing class from personal experience of its dynamics. Marina Warner’s recent study, Sanctuary: Ways of Telling, Ways of Dwelling, proposes that imaginative story-making can build home and belonging. In the current climate of exacerbated divisiveness, anxiety about self and hostility towards others, Julia Bell and Marina Warner will hold a conversation followed by a workshop to explore the role that words and stories, writing and narrating, can play.
