Freedom Of Expression And Censorship Talk at Zico House

As part of the Hay Festival 2013, the Zico House is hosting a talk with Abbas Beydoun, Wael Abd el Fattah, Rabab El Mahdi and Iskandar Habache about freedom of expression.

Does a writer have any duty to recount certain stories, to attempt to tell the truth, even? And in societies where freedom of expression is limited or censorship imposed, do such responsibilities increase? Writers from Egypt and Lebanon discuss their experiences with censorship and publishing in the region.
