We are so sorry that Penelope Shuttle was unable to come to Teignmouth and read from her book The History of the Child, due to ill health. We had to cancel the event at the last minute and apologise for those who didn’t get the message in time. Penelope has let us know that she is now feeling much better, and will be coming to Exeter on Tuesday 26th May – Uncut Poets at Exeter Phoenix 7.30pm.
