From Bandit Queen to Elizabeth: The Golden Age, Shekhar Kapur's eclecticism is evident in his many splendorous oeuvres.

Vikas Swarup's debut brought us Slumdog Millionaire, ensuring his place in popular imagination as an acute observer of life, no matter what the medium. Celebrated screenwriter , producer and playwright Sarah Phelps has worked on EastEnders, adaptations of Agatha Christie's And Then There Were None and The Witness for the Prosecution, and Charles Dickens's Oliver Twist and Great Expectations, among others. These luminaries are proof of how artistic sensibilities spill across boundaries to draw new pictures on the wide canvas of expression. 

Join them in a freewheeling conversation about the many shapes of the craft of creativity, on the opening night of this year’s JLF at the British Library.

Discounts available for BL Members, students and under 26s
