Hong Kong Book Fair: David Tang interviews AA Gill, Nicholas Coleridge
AA Gill calls himself a "truth teller," Nicholas Coleridge shares his love connection with Hong Kong and Tom Parker Bowles says we are "the world's greatest food city"
Sir David Tang Wing Cheung, of Shanghai Tang and The China Club fame, is moderating the "How and What and Why do Writers Write?" forum at the Hong Kong Book Fair.
The speakers are an impressive group of headliners from the British literary circle: food critic and essayist, AA Gill; intrepid food writer and son to the Duchess of Cornwall, Tom Parker Bowles; novelist and VP of Condé Nast International, Nicholas Coleridge, as well as respected historian Dr. David Starkey.
The forum, to be held on July 22 at 6 p.m., will only last two hours. Hardly enough time for us to get enough of this gang of eloquent opinionators. Luckily, Tang has interviewed each of them as a precursor to the event, going some way to satiate our appetite for their talents in discourse.
