Once a year, in wild, beautiful Unama’ki (Cape Breton), writers and readers come together and experience the magic power of stories to connect us and create community. The ever-lively Friday Night Reading Series opens the festival featuring readings by Dominique Bernier-Cormier, Sig Burwash, Charlene Carr, David Chariandy, Andrea Currie, Anne Koval, Ann-Marie MacDonald and Jesse Thistle (hosted by Alexander MacLeod). This event will be held in the beautiful Great Hall of the Clans, alongside a blazing hearth, at the Gaelic College in St. Ann’s.
