The Iconic Galway city centre bookshop hosts the now traditional Culture Night literary gathering which invites readings by every author living in Galway who has had a book published in the 12 months since the last Culture Night. It is a great snapshot of a continuingly evolving literary scene and is a great way to bring writers to the attention of the very broad Culture Night audience. It is what could be called a carousel event as audiences can come and go at intervals over the course of the evening as writers read a short selection from their published books which feature fiction, non-fiction and poetry. All are welcome.
