Festivities will include a reading from an unfinished story by Wynne Jones, live music from the ballet of Black Maria, and a tower built from copies of all her books—including the translations." Details on the <a href="http://calcifer.co.uk/">official site</a> state: "Family and friends, her agent, her publishers from the UK and USA, and fellow writers, will describe what Diana meant to them.
