DIRECTED BY SIMON EVANS.
1 July 2021
Overview
“Sat in a café reading Villon. In Paris. In English. What a cliché.”
Henry Wicks is here to talk about his new book. An erudite scholar with effortless French, where does his fascination with a 15th century poet come from? And what happens when books live on in the heart, as well as the mind? Henry’s story of poetry, romance and reading takes us back to a long-lost summer in Paris.
