The British Library Fantasy Exhibition
January 10, 2024 4:17 AM   Subscribe

The British Library is running an exhibition entitled Fantasy: Realms of the Imagination. Featured items include everything from Earthseaa drafts to Buffy clips to a playable Fallen London mini-game. The associated talks that are being streamed online look like something special, including Susanna Clarke and Alan Moore in conversation tomorrow (11 January at 19.30), and more yet to come, including Queer Fantasy, Black to the Future, and Goblin Market and Other Poems, among others.

I wanted to see an earlier talk in this series and missed it, but fortunately there are recordings.

I read a great piece about the exhibition a few weeks back on Eurogamer, and had lamented that I almost certainly won't get back to the UK in time to see it. These talks look like a fantastic antidote... thank you for sharing.

Thanks for this post, I was waiting for the British Library website to come back up after it was taken down last year as part of an extensive cyber attack. I did know about the exhibit, but didn't know about the archive of talks.
