University of East Anglia

The Noirwich 2023 programme of events will take place at UEA on Friday 8 and Saturday 9 September.

UEA pioneered the teaching of Creative Writing in the United Kingdom and in 2020 they celebrated 50 years of teaching it. The Creative Writing MA Crime Fiction is the first stand-alone course of its kind in a UK university and has been fully subscribed since it launched in 2015.

The Noirwich ecosystem advances the practice, pedagogy, and perception of crime writing as a serious form of literary expression that can address major contemporary concerns. It’s underpinned by the creative and critical research of Professor Henry Sutton, Dr Nathan Ashman, and Tom Benn.
