Admission is free. From The Bodleian website:

"Write, Cut, Rewrite is an exhibition dedicated to the creative importance of editing in literature, often referred to as ‘killing your darlings.... features abandoned works, such as Jane Austen’s The Watsons, and cases of censorship, such as Samuel Beckett’s Waiting for Godot. It also touches on the revisions and rewritings of famous books, offering a unique chance to look over the shoulder of literary greats at the moment of creation.

Highlights include discarded ideas, fundamental changes, deletions, additions, notes and scribbles from great authors such as Mary and Percy Shelley, Jane Austen, James Joyce, Raymond Chandler, Ian Fleming, Samuel Beckett, and John le Carré."

Editing is the hidden secret of great work. The exhibition shines a light on the creative methods writers use

Reading & publishing. History & the future. Coming soon: The Wonderful World of… by established author Rorie, who writes in France & Cornwall.
This autumn WriteSideLeft continues to explore hatred & prejudices in the context of history, humour, & lost generations, wrapped up in love & trade. This autumn, we’re daring to look at Brexit & lost faith - authors everywhere stand in fear of the past, but continuously diligently & bravely observe the absurd without fear of their books being burnt, by climate or madmen.

‘You can’t judge a book by its cover” is the worst proverb. Because, as every author, publisher and book jacket designer will tell you, a cover is there to be judged. Get it right and people will pick it up. Fail and a book will languish unloved on the shelf. And as any reader knows, the cover...
