Presented in The Council Chamber

Our highly popular series of lunchtime lectures on great works of literature are brought to you by Dr Jane Mackay.  A graduate of three universities, Jane’s obvious love for her subject, penetrating insight, wit, warmth and humanity continue to enthral.

'Fahrenheit 451' by Ray Bradbury
A hauntingly prophetic novel about a future where happiness is a 4 walled TV screen and an infinite supply of tranquilisers. Here books are the source of unhappiness and unrest and firemen must burn them and those who store them.
