International Lit Fest 2012

Various Downtown Venues, Edmonton Alberta Ongoing through Sunday, October 28, 2012 Edmonton is a creative incubator for award winning, best selling and emerging authors and writers. LitFest promotes and celebrates this local talent through a variety of panels and discussions. Creative non-fiction allows a writer to employ the diligence of a reporter, the shifting voices and viewpoints of a novelist, the refined work play of a poet and the analytical modes of the essayist and a journalist. LitFest showcases the ability of this genre to inspire and provoke debates on the themes that define our present and may shape our future. LitFest: Edmonton International Literary Festival was created in 2002 as the successor of the Alberta Book Fair, an annual trade fair for almost 20 years.
