The DESIblitz Literature Festival celebrates south Asian literature and culture: find out lots more on the Desiblitz website. The festival gave RE students from Bedfordshire the chance to interview genius ‘young adult fiction’ author Bali Rai. Famous for books like [Un]arranged Marriage, Now or Never and Killing Honour, Rai, born in Leicester in 1971, is admired for his ability to create compelling fiction for young people from the rich and raw experience of life. Students from Queensbury Academy in Bedfordshire interviewed him about his work and life.
