 Hello!

 I'm very happy to be involved with Manchester Literature Festival for a third year. My first event was hearing Kirmen Uribe and Jesús Carrasco read at the Instituto Cervantes.

 Kirmen writes in Basque and Jesús in Castilian, so for me as a linguist it was a fascinating experience.

 I hope you enjoy my account of the event, which has been published on the Festival's Chapter and Verse blog.

Music articles in The Mancunion

 Hello!

 Just letting you know that I have had two pieces on foreign language music published in The Mancunion. 

 The first is an opinion piece on whether it is necessary to understand a song's lyrics in order to really appreciate it. The second is my top five songs that you can "feel" without understanding the lyrics.

 I hope you enjoy them!
