David Ridgus Posted 21 May , 2016 Share Posted 21 May , 2016 sJ Your recent posting of. Michael Sheen reading from Jones' work prompted me to reread In Parenthesis over the last Bank Holiday. And now you tempt me further! Looks really good David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seaJane Posted 22 May , 2016 Author Share Posted 22 May , 2016 It does - I so wish I could be in two places at once! This event I picked up from Opus Anglicanum's website after they gave an *excellent* concert in Wells yesterday evening - whatever the conference is like, the singing will be good.

MichaelBully Posted 22 May , 2016 Share Posted 22 May , 2016 Thanks, SJ, A little outside my stamping ground but I will let the War Poets Association and other interested parties know. The David Jones Dialogues conference that weekend in York looks very interesting indeed. Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
