Mr B’s at the Bath Literature Festival

« Back to Events

 Mr B’s has been the official bookseller for Bath Literature Festival since 2009, and so far we’ve had three great years of bookselling fun, rolling our pop- up bookshops to The Guildhall and other venues all over the city for over 400 literary events.

Some of our festival highlights include: attending dozens of fantastic talks from award-winning authors from Kazuo Ishiguro to Carol Ann Duffy, learning about Shakespeare in the hands of the irrepressible Ben Crystal, lovely Francophile novelist Kate Mosse joining us briefly as an honorary member of the Mr B’s shop team, watching gentlemanly travel-writer Colin Thubron search for someone’s lost earring in the Green Room in true can-do-adventurer style and reading the great stories composed by our customers on our 2011 festival storyboard.

As well as our role as official bookseller, Mr B’s is proud to be a major sponsor of the festival. We sponsor a number of events each year in association with our friends at other local businesses. Follow the links below to read about the fantastic work done by our various co-sponsors:
