“After a day’s walk, everything has twice its usual value.”
– George Macauley Trevelyan

​

The writers of Milton Keynes are also observers - twenty-first century flaneurs, walking the streets and footpaths of the city and capturing their responses and experiences in words.

 

For its Raising Voices project, MK Lit Fest are curating their poems, short stories and non-fiction into a forthcoming online interactive audio-visual StoryMap, and a series of neighbour SoundWalks, which will start to be available later in 2025.

In partnership with Look Again, however, you can join us for a live preview as we lead a literary walk around Central Milton Keynes, featuring the very best of local writing read in situ by its authors.

 

The walk will include readings of poems and short stories by Chris Allen, Clare Read,  Stephanie Lay, Nadia Partyka, Graham R Sherwood, Phil Sky, Christopher Phillips, and Sarah Davies

​

Reserve your place now, or just meet us outside Milton Keynes Central Library.
