The book that all the fuss is about; if invited authors are to be suddenly excluded - or clumsily ‘dis-invited’ - from literary festivals on the basis of race, where will it all end? What is ‘cultural sensitivity’ anyway? And who decides when it has been breached? Who decides who has a right to feel sensitive? As a bookshop owner, I pride myself on carrying a wide range of material, including writers with whom I disagree. Without dialogue, it is impossible to build the bridges that allow a consensus to be reached. Hats off to all the other authors who have dis-invited themselves in the name of free speech!! @wisewordsbookshop #mymoree #independentbookstore #freespeech #culturalsensitivity #cancelledwriters
