We shoot the breeze about the good that literature festivals do, as well as the evil that lives on after them. Is a festival a “safe space” for free speech?

And what exactly is the point of these gigantic jamborees anyway? Allow us to bring you our highly subjective lowdown on lit fests.   You can find Supriya Nair at @supriyanair and Deepanjana Pal at @dpanjana.   This is a Maed In India Production; check us out at www.maedinindia.in.
