Thomas Hardy is one of the few great writers to enjoy an equally illustrious career as a novelist, a short story writer and a poet. Our next Special Interest Event will concentrate on Hardy’s life, work and cultural interactions – with a special emphasis on his last great tragic novels, his shorter fiction, his poetry and some of the women who inspired his work.

The fee includes the full lecture programme, three nights’ accommodation*, all meals, dinner wines and refreshments as timetabled.

*Day delegate rate available for those local to the House. See here to book your place.
