SUMMARY:Hardy Perennial
DESCRIPTION:\n\n\n\n\nThomas Hardy\n\n\n\nThe continuing legacy of Thomas Hardy\n\n\n\nLed by Kate Streeter, this cabaret-style evening features a selection of Thomas Hardy’s poetry and his prose, brought to life through live music, dramatic readings, specially-made recordings, and film.  \n\n\n\nNow known mainly for his novels, Hardy thought of himself as primarily a poet. He thought of poetry as his ‘true calling’, since he could ‘express more fully in verse ideas and emotions which run counter to … crystallised opinion’. Spanning seventy years, his often spare and deceptively simple verse reflects not only the seismic shocks and moral challenges of the 19th and early 20th centuries but also grants valuable insights into his life, his loves … and the reasons for his enduring appeal.  \n\n\n\nThe evening promises to be a richly engaging experience.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEntrance: £10\n\n\n\nYou can purchase tickets by completing the form below.\n\n\n\nTickets can also be booked through the Thomas Poole Library, or by:\n\n\n\n\nEmailing eventsandpr@thomaspoolelibrary.org.uk ( mailto:eventsandpr@thomaspoolelibrary.org.uk )\n\n\n\nCalling the library on 07734 968940\n\n\n\n\n\nvar gform;gform||(document.addEventListener("gform_main_scripts_loaded",function(){gform.scriptsLoaded=!0}),document.addEventListener("gform/theme/scripts_loaded",function(){gform.themeScriptsLoaded=!0}),window.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded",function(){gform.domLoaded=!0}),gform={domLoaded:!1,scriptsLoaded:!1,themeScriptsLoaded:!1,isFormEditor:()=>"function"==typeof InitializeEditor,callIfLoaded:function(o){return!(!gform.domLoaded||!gform.scriptsLoaded||!gform.themeScriptsLoaded&&!gform.isFormEditor()||(gform.isFormEditor()&&console.warn("The use of gform.initializeOnLoaded() is deprecated in the form editor context and will be removed in Gravity Forms 3.1."),o(),0))},initializeOnLoaded:function(o){gform.callIfLoaded(o)||(document.addEventListener("gform_main_scripts_loaded",()=>{gform.scriptsLoaded=!0,gform.callIfLoaded(o)}),document.addEventListener("gform/theme/scripts_loaded",()=>{gform.themeScriptsLoaded=!0,gform.callIfLoaded(o)}),window.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded",()=>{gform.domLoaded=!0,gform.callIfLoaded(o)}))},hooks:{action:{},filter:{}},addAction:function(o,r,e,t){gform.addHook("action",o,r,e,t)},addFilter:function(o,r,e,t){gform.addHook("filter",o,r,e,t)},doAction:function(o){gform.doHook("action",o,arguments)},applyFilters:function(o){return gform.doHook("filter",o,arguments)},removeAction:function(o,r){gform.removeHook("action",o,r)},removeFilter:function(o,r,e){gform.removeHook("filter",o,r,e)},addHook:function(o,r,e,t,n){null==gform.hooks[o][r]&&(gform.hooks[o][r]=[]);var d=gform.hooks[o][r];null==n&&(n=r+"_"+d.length),gform.hooks[o][r].push({tag:n,callable:e,priority:t=null==t?10:t})},doHook:function(r,o,e){var t;if(e=Array.prototype.slice.call(e,1),null!=gform.hooks[r][o]&&((o=gform.hooks[r][o]).sort(function(o,r){return o.priority-r.priority}),o.forEach(function(o){"function"!=typeof(t=o.callable)&&(t=window[t]),"action"==r?t.apply(null,e):e[0]=t.apply(null,e)})),"filter"==r)return e[0]},removeHook:function(o,r,t,n){var e;null!=gform.hooks[o][r]&&(e=(e=gform.hooks[o][r]).filter(function(o,r,e){return!!(null!=n&&n!=o.tag||null!=t&&t!=o.priority)}),gform.hooks[o][r]=e)}});\n\n\n                \n                        LinkedInThis field is for validation purposes and should be left unchanged.To purchase your tickets, please complete the form.Name(Required)\n                            \n                            \n                                                    First\n                                                    \n                                                \n                            \n                            \n                                                            Last\n                                                            \n                                                        \n                            \n                        Email(Required)\n                            \n                        Phone(Required)Hardy Perennial Quantity\n					\n					\n						Price:\n						£ 10.00\n					\n					\n					 Quantity \n				DonationI would like to make an additional donation to support the great work the Library does.Thank You.\n					\n				Gift Aid\n								\n								I want to Gift Aid this donation and any donations I make in the future or have made in the past 4 years to The Thomas Poole Library Nether Stowey\n							Boost your donation by 25p of Gift Aid for every £1 you donate.
