An epic talks space.
Hay began over 20 years ago in the Welsh town of first edition and second hand bookshops. Bill Clinton's ´Woodstock of the mind´. There are now off-shoots in Spain and Colombia.
How did the festival begin? Apparently, the Hay founder won a few pennies at a casino and decided to start a book festival with his pot of gold. This could well be a storyteller's rumour. But a rumour that I am keen to share.
