SUMMARY:Kernow to the Crystal Palace: Mary Kelynack’s Extraordinary Journey - a talk from Pamela Vass.
DESCRIPTION:  \n \n  \nIn August 1851 a curiously dressed\, elderly woman was seen trudging along Southampton High Street. Passers by couldn’t fail to notice her\, she wore a huge beaver bonnet and carried a corracle-like basket on her back. She was a Cornish fisherwoman\, she said\, in her 84th year\, and was walking to London from the Land’s End to see the Great Exhibition. \n\n\nMary Kelynack spent her entire life in the small community of Newlyn in the far west of Cornwall. Yet she became so inspired by the wonders of the Great Exhibition in the Crystal Palace that she resolved to go. Travelling by steamer\, coach or train was beyond her means but there was one thing she could do – walk. \n\n\nBefore long she had become quite a celebrity – noticed at the Great Exhibition\, taking tea with the Lord Mayor\, interviewed by the Illustrated London News\, modelled by a famous sculptor\, having a song and a polka named after her… and even greeting the Queen. \n\n\n\n\nThis illustrated presentation reveals the truth behind the Cornish legend that is Mary Kelynack\, covering her extraordinary journey\, her adventures in London and her final\, and previously unreported\, adventure. \nTICKETS \n\n\n\nTickets are allocated by a ballot system. \n\n\nPlease email enquiries@morrablibrary.org.uk or call 01736 364474 to be entered into the ballot for a ticket. The ballot closes on Monday 6th April. \n\n\nEntry to this event is free but donations are welcomed to help support The Morrab Library (suggested £5). \n\n\nRefreshments will be provided after the talk. \n\n\nCopies of Pamela’s book will be sold at the talk.

SUMMARY:Library Talk: ‘Dartmoor Elements – the ecological poems and play extracts of Mark Beeson’ by Tom Greeves

From 1989-2022 he was artistic director of Manaton & East Dartmoor Theatre (MED Theatre) which he founded. Mark’s greatest legacy is his creative and ecological writing of poetry and plays relating to Dartmoor. As long ago as 1980 his epic poem – The Walk – won a prize in an international poetry competition\, where it was admired by Ted Hughes\, Seamus Heaney\, Charles Causley and Philip Larkin. \nDartmoor Elements (published in 2025) brings together 133 of Mark’s poems and poetic play extracts\, which are intimate reflections on his familiar environment of Dartmoor\, drawing on decades of keen observation of his surroundings and of the creatures (both animal and human) who inhabit it\, as well as on his deep knowledge of the moor’s folklore and culture. With Gillian Webster\, Tom Greeves edited Dartmoor Elements\, which forms the most significant collection of Dartmoor poetry ever published. The poems are accessible and often deeply moving\, and contain much ecological wisdom.   \nTICKETS \nTickets are allocated by a ballot system.

SUMMARY:Tickets still available - Debut Authors: Jodie Matthews and Ian Russell-Hsieh in Conversation
DESCRIPTION:Our next talk in the Reading Room at The Morrab Library will be a conversation between two debut novelists: Cornish author Jodie Matthews and Cornwall-based author Ian Russell-Hsieh. Their books are two very different explorations of grief\, love and heritage and this conversation will be taking place on Saturday 20th July at 1.30pm. \nBoth of the books are available to borrow from the Library. Please email us if you would like to reserve either of the books. \n“Meet Me At The Surface” by Jodie Matthews\nMerryn grew up on the wilds of Bodmin moor\, raised by her mother and her aunt in an old farmhouse. Here\, the locals never leave the village\, fear for the future of their farms and cling desperately to the folkloric tales that are woven into their history. Except Merryn\, who has escaped to Manchester for university. When Merryn returns home for the memorial service of her ex-girlfriend Claud\, she finds her childhood home stranger and more secretive than ever. MEET ME AT THE SURFACE weaves myth with queer folk horror in an unforgettable mystery that introduces an exciting new voice in fiction. \n“I’m New Here” by Ian Russell-Hsieh\nFired from his job and dumped by his girlfriend\, Taiwanese-British photographer Sean flies to Taipei to seek oblivion. Lost in the neon heat of his parents’ homeland\, though\, all he finds is alienation. Then\, a chance encounter with a mysterious older man draws him into a friendship where the terms of engagement are quickly\, ominously blurred. I’M NEW HERE is a thrilling\, hallucinatory debut and masterclass in unreliable narration. \nTickets are still available. Please email enquiries@morrablibrary.org.uk or call 01736 364474 for a ticket.  Entry to this event is free but donations are welcomed to help support The Morrab Library (suggested £5). Refreshments will be provided after the talk.

SUMMARY:Stories of the Stones | with Dr Serena Trowbridge
DESCRIPTION:Our next Library talk comes from Dr Serena Trowbridge. She will be returning to The Morrab Library Reading Room to talk about the ‘Stories from the Stones’ on Wednesday 10th July at 2pm. \nBritain’s landscape contains many stone circles\, especially in Cornwall. Their original purpose remains mysterious despite extensive archaeological investigation\, and perhaps it is their obscurity which makes them so fascinating. \nOver the centuries they have inspired many legends\, most famously of girls turned to stone for dancing on a holy day\, or stones which walk to a river and drink. The stories reflect the changing interests and concerns of society and tell us more about our culture than they do about the sites themselves. This talk will explore a few of these stories of the stones\, including the Merry Maidens\, and consider the significance of mythmaking and storytelling. \nTickets are allocated by a ballot system. Please email enquiries@morrablibrary.org.uk or call 01736 364474 to be entered into the ballot for a ticket. The ballot closes on Monday 1st July. Entry to this event is free but donations are welcomed to help support The Morrab Library (suggested £5). Refreshments will be provided after the talk.
