Writers' Retreat
£15.00, £12.00
Reading Workshop
Join award-winning children’s author Christopher Edge for a look at Brendon Chase by Denys Watkins-Pitchford, who wrote under the pseudonym ‘BB’. Published in 1944 but set earlier in the 20th century, it tells the story of three boys living wild in an English forest, trying to evade capture. Expect an open discussion from the start; you can read the book ahead of the event or be inspired to pick it up afterwards.
