A Commonwealth Legacy of Literature

Aye Write! authors show their solidarity with writers who have been persecuted or imprisoned for their thoughts and words.
Amnesty International celebrates more than 50 years of defending freedom of expression by considering how words can have real power in the struggle for human rights. Imprisoned Writers gives authors attending Aye Write! the opportunity show their solidarity with writers who have been persecuted or imprisoned for their thoughts and words. We also pay tribute to those who do not have a voice of their own to discuss their plight. These free events are open to all, but seats are allocated on a first come, first served basis.
Mitchell Library, North Street, Charing Cross
