About this event

Luke Thompson is a writer, publisher and academic from Cornwall, whose work focuses on the relationships between people and other animals, as well as on the literature of Cornwall.

Did you hear about the Redruth girl who vomited snails? Or how the saint of Gunwalloe saved his sister’s eye from a goose? Can you cure warts with a slug, or whooping cough with spiders? Join Luke to hear all about his new work A Cornish Bestiary and all the curious creatures of Cornwall that he has uncovered.

This will be a ticketed event and we’ll be putting tickets on sale soon. In the meantime, please save the date.
