Hilaire Belloc, illustrious poet (and wine-enthusiast!), is your host for the evening as he introduces us to three other writers to celebrate some of Sussex’s best-loved poems and the stories behind them. Expect tales of wartime, cruel crime, revenge and a little bit of rhyme celebrating the joy of life as we take an informative and entertaining trip through dramatic stories and verse.
