This year's JBW, which takes place at Kings Place in London's Kings Cross between 22 February and 2 March, features book launches, readings, author signings, debates, film, music, performance and walking tours.
Featured authors include Alain de Botton, Julie Burchill, Andrew Sachs and Robert Harris. Topics range from 50 years of Fiddler on the Roof, the Jewish roots of punk, food in Italy with Claudia Rosen and Jews and music under Nazi rule. US author Gary Shteyengart will be launching Little Failure, a memoir of American immigrant experience. Ruby Wax's Sane New World will be launched in paperback. Much-loved children's writer and illustrator Judith Kerr, who recently turned 90, will share the real life stories behind her words and pictures. Only a handful of tickets are left for her 2 March event, so get booking!
