Bad books

Yesterday I spent a few hours at WordPlay, apparently the first literary festival ever to grace Bangkok. As enjoyable as the talks and events were, it was a passing sentence in the programme that really caught my attention:
If you notice anything strange or disturbing, please contact the event organisers.
Surely at a literary festival, it’s the absence of strangeness and disturbance that would be more of a problem?
