Become a Friend of the Festival

How’s your literary karma?

Every March, The Bookworm is transformed into a hub of literary, intellectual and creative activity as we celebrate all things books with The Bookworm International Literary Festival.

Our festival simply would not be possible without the invaluable support of our sponsors and friends of the festival. From international flights to marketing materials, the festival relies on the support of many. Your donations – large or small – are what keep us going and help us bring you a world-class festival.

    The Polish wunderkind\'s gritty tales of council estates, gypsy camps and dive bars give voice to a post-communist underclass burdened by violence, drugs, immigration and unemployment.
