With the city abuzz with new openings, festivals, exhibitions and events, October is promising to be a busy month here in
Cambridge. In Culture Club, we celebrate two decades of Cambridge Literary Festival – an event which we’ve been covering since Edition’s earliest days over 12 years ago. Back then, it was a boutique gathering known as Wordfest, but today it’s grown into a twice-annual literary celebration of international acclaim. We sit down with founder Cathy
Moore on page 18, as she looks back proudly on two decades. We’ve got the lowdown on Cambridge Film Festival, too, plus local author Menna van Praag shares how the city inspired her magical new novel Child of Earth and Sky. We also head backstage on page 16 with Rupert Everett, Hollywood leading man and star of A Voyage Round My Father, which stops by Cambridge Arts Theatre this month. On the food front, there are exciting new eateries to explore, as well as a chat with culinary rising talent Marcus Clayton, who tells us about his remarkable road to an international chef contest this month.
If you fancy winning a feast for you and your friends, check out our competition on page 39, where we’ve teamed up with newcomer Kibou to give away a meal for six. We’ve also got a £250 voucher for top home store Glasswells up for grabs (page 69), a round-up of the best books to curl up with this autumn (page 20), plus a guide to festive feasts and seasonal treats in our winter dining special (page 45).
