Tuesday November the 3rd saw our second members meeting of the year enjoying a talk on Thoma Hardy with over one hundred people in attendance.
Anne King gave an informative and lively talk on Thomas Hardy’s, life, landscapes and laughter. bringing alive his origins, social background, novels, poems and place names.
Few of us would have associated humour with Thomas Hardy, romance and tragedy, yes; but by the end of the evening we had been introduced to this other side of the man, with his dark ironic humour ably demonstrated through snippets of his poetry.
Why not join us for our next meeting Tuesday December 1st when Peter Welton will be opening up to us some aspects of The History of Portland.
