In between author events or if you have nothing planned, come and listen to the classic novel by George and Weedon Grossmith, chronicling the daily lives of the Pooter family in late-nineteenth-century Holloway (just up the road from Barnsbury!) Our team of enthusiastic 'Nobodys' will be reading aloud in the sylvan setting of Barnsbury Wood, just around the corner from Thornhill Square.

Bring your tea, coffee or sandwiches and listen to the trials and tribulations of the Pooters amid the sprightly sound of spring birds. With chilled, live jazz interludes.
