Graham Greene
Berkhamsted 25-28th September 2025
Now in its 26th year, The Graham Greene International Festival invites you to join four days of talks, film screenings and discussion inspired by one of the twentieth century’s greatest writers.
This year’s festival will be directed by Professor Richard Greene, with programming contributions from across the literary and academic world.
Festival Highlights
This year’s line-up features a rich and diverse programme of speakers and events, including:
Armando Iannucci
Acclaimed satirist, screenwriter and broadcaster (The Thick of It, The Death of Stalin, Veep), Iannucci will speak about his lifelong admiration for Graham Greene.
Kevin Ruane
Previewing his work editing the complete correspondence between Greene and Walston — a landmark research project offering new insight into Greene’s private and creative life.
Brigitte Timmerman
Presenting Female Aspects of The Third Man, a fresh reading of the film that highlights overlooked perspectives and character dynamics.
We recommend booking early for popular sessions – especially Armando Iannucci’s talk, which is expected to sell out.
