Alan Johnson - Thomas Hardy and My Life in Books
A Special Talk for the Thomas Hardy Society Conference 2021
Saturday 17th July at 11am
Alan Johnson was introduced to Hardy by a fellow postman at Slough Sorting Office who leant him a coyp of Return of the Native. One of his happiest memories is of sitting in his Post Office van down a Buckinghamshire country lane reading Tess of the d'Urbervilles before beginning the evening collection.
The popular author of a number of books including four volumes of memoirs, Alan's works include: This Boy, Please Mister Postman, The Long and Winding Road, and In My Life.
Tickets: For those who are not attending the conference in its entirety - £10 (£8 for THS Members)
