Who
are your fantasy dinner party guests from the literature world?
Picture
the scene: you're hosting an intimate dinner party and you
can invite three literary authors or characters - dead or
alive.
Who would they be? What would you ask them? Why have you invited
them?
Send in your choices with an explanation (not exceeding 200
words), which will be posted on our Big Read message board.
The best choice and explanation will win fab Waterstones book
vouchers!
