Novelists, publishers and hordes of bibliophiles from here and abroad converge on the touristy but oh-so-lovely town of Franschhoek during this relatively new literary festival started by award-winning author Christopher Hope. Apart from book and poetry readings, there are also plays and music to help set the cultured mood.
