British best-selling author Jeanette Winterson rarely appears in public, but she made an exception for the Passa Porta Festival. She gave a reading to a packed room of captivated readers.

In her latest book, The Night Side of the River she presents thirteen short stories in which she combines ghost stories and science fiction to examine the future of humanity.
