About the event
Topic for this first conversation is "Wintering" - inspired by the turn of this season we are in and Katherine May's book of the same name. I first came across her book in January 2021. It had a profound impact on me then and I am curious to discuss with you what "Wintering" can and does mean to us and the thinkers, poets. etc we will listen to.
Here is a link to the OnBeing Episode that inspired this conversation, no need to listen to it ahead of time, we will listen to parts of it on the evening of our conversation. Let me know if you have any questions, and if you can come!

Also, a lovely poem that we will listen to.
