OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Join us for the next in the Kellogg Centre for Creative Writing seminar series.
Jane Rogers has published ten novels, a collection of stories, original television and radio drama, and adapted work for radio. Her novels range from historical (‘Mr Wroe’s Virgins’, which she adapted into an award-winning BBC2 serial) through contemporary (‘Island’, about a young woman who sets out to murder her mother) to science fiction (‘The Testament of Jessie Lamb’, ManBooker longlisted, winner of the Arthur C Clarke Award). She is Professor Emerita of Writing at Sheffield Hallam, and has taught writing to a wide variety of students. Her latest novel ‘Body Tourists’ is a dystopia set in 2045.
This seminar is open to all, no booking necessary. Refreshments will be served from 17:00, the seminar will begin at 17:30.
