Description
“A monstrous goat has been seen to skip with hellish glee about the woods, and this perhaps is connected with the story which I tell you…”
Join us for a summer evening of unsettling tales…
The Greek god Pan – long dead – made a startling reappearance in the literature of Edwardian England. Robert Lloyd Parry brings two of these appearances to life with thrilling readings of E F Benson’s “The Man Who Went Too Far” and Kenneth Grahame’s “The Piper at the Gates of Dawn”.
