Reading the Land
The theme 'Reading the Land' is an invitation to share in the passion, experience and insight of our authors as we explore the best of nature writing. We bring togethers authors for whom our natural world has significance, whether through observation, participation or experience. Join us as we explore themes from farming to wildflowers, beats to birds, and the importance of understanding our natural ecosystems, like waterways and UK rainforests.
Starting on Friday night and running through the weekend, with author talks at the Grosvenor Arms, and children's events at Shaftesbury Library and Shaftesbury Arts Centre, the event promises to be interesting and engaging.
