Although many have sold out, at the time of writing there are still tickets available for an array of unmissable events courtesy of the Cambridge Literary Festival’s Winter Weekend.

From 22-23 November, cosy up and listen to John Suchet share his unbridled passion for Beethoven. Additionally, Natalie Haynes stands up for the classics with her latest show, No Friend to this House, which gloriously reimagines the myth of Medea, beloved poet Wendy Cope talks about her Collected Poems and Katie Piper reflects on what it means for a woman to age ‘well’ in a society obsessed with impossible beauty standards and youth. Plus, inspirational Cambridge cook, writer and journalist Bee Wilson shares her latest offering, The Heart Shaped Tin.
