About this Event
Slow down, read closely, think and discuss - that's what we are asking you to do in this club. Did you know that Charles Dickens visited the Portico Library a few days before he set off for a family holiday to Italy in June 1843? Let's join him from Manchester.
Turn off your smart phones, step away from the hectic pace of life, and discuss words.
Includes a tea or coffee.
