The Open House Festival dominates the literary scene April 28 to May 1, bringing together some of the world’s most fascinating writers and thinkers. There are tons of great events, but our fave happens Saturday (April 30), when Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie (The Thing Around Your Neck, Vintage ) Justin Cronin (The Passage , Doubleday), Miriam Toews (Irma Voth, Knopf) and Irvine Welsh (Reheated Cabbage, Vintage) take the stage at the Reference Library. Bonus: a hunk of the proceeds go to the Child Soldiers Initiative, Frontier College and the Toronto Public Library Foundation.
