Readers Group – July

The subject for this months Readers Group was the poetry of Elizabeth Barrett Browning. Each of us chose a poem and read it out to the group, explaining why this had been chosen. It was surprising how many different poems were chosen and some people had gone into the life story of Elizabeth Barrett Browning, which we all agreed was fascinating. In fact the group agreed it was an interesting meeting, very different from usual.
