A
typically packed and dizzyingly varied roster once again from this year’s Lit
Fest. Manchester is book capital for the
duration of this autumn city festival. Coupled with the annual boost in the concert
calendar, you might find you’re out and about in the next few weeks more often than
you were in the drizzly summer.
