The Orwell Lecture 2024: The Feeling of Freedom, was given by Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe at the Queen Elizabeth Hall @southbankcentre. An unforgettable evening.

What a magical night. A well-deserved standing ovation for Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe, who delivered The Orwell Lecture 2024: The Feeling of Freedom. It was a packed house at @southbankcentre 's Queen Elizabeth Hall and a profoundly moving experience.

What an absolute pleasure to see Hanne Ørstavik interviewed by @KatyaTaylor at the @southbankcentre this evening!
Her new novel “stay with me” is a deeply compelling puzzle of a book that delves into big emotions - fear, grief & love. A highly personal multi-layered story.
