Forest Writers: Networks and connections
The Library, The Main Place, Old Station Way, Coleford, Gloucestershire, GL16 8RH
An evening with the Forest of Dean Writers Collection team in Coleford Library. Findings are emerging from the new collelction.
Some of our favourite Forest writers moved away, yet they remained connected to the place and people that meant so much to them – and continued to write about it.
This lively talk and discussion draws on findings emerging from the new Forest of Dean Writers Collection at the Dean Heritage Centre.
This event will explore how Forest of Dean literary networks and connections saw familiarity with the Forest spread around the world.
