Following last year’s sell-out Art of the Short Story event, Comma Press brings you the second of its Morphologies masterclasses; a series of talks by contemporary short story writers on past masters of the form. Tonight, two of Britain’s best loved writers – multi-award-winning poet and author of The Silence Room, Sean O’Brien, and acclaimed screenwriter and author of the Olympics opening ceremony, Frank Cottrell Boyce – offer personal and professional reflections on two of the most important short story writers of all time, Edgar Allan Poe and Anton Chekhov. Visit the 2014 Manchester Literature Festival website for booking details.
