@autumnrosewell The Graves one is at St John's College, Oxford, the Graves Society Conference (17 Sept). I imagine you could sneak in, but don't know. The Wicker Man one is at The Old Fire Station, Oxford, (10 Oct) as part of the Shocktober Festival, I think that would be easy to attend.

I'm committed to giving a couple of talks soon - one on Robert Graves as a children's writer. I'm going to make a connection between Graves and Ted Hughes. The other is on The Wicker Man, and I'm going to make a connection between that and Ted Hughes, specifically Gaudete.
