About The Event
Caroline Lucas' recently published book, Another England, delves into our literary heritage to explore what it can teach us about the most pressing issues of our time: whether the toxic legacy of Empire, the struggle for constitutional reform, or the accelerating climate emergency. And she sketches out an alternative Englishness: one that we can all embrace to build a greener, fairer future.
Join Caroline Lucas as she discusses how we can reclaim our national story.
Ben Bruges, local poet, will be opening for Caroline. Ben works in education, is co-Features Editor for Hastings Independent, has poems published in multiple publications and is long-listed for the Elizabeth Royal Patton Memorial Poetry Competition.
