Come and join Aberystwyth sisters Francesca Rhydderch & Samantha Wynne-Rhydderch discuss the erosion of memory and the art of the memoir with Professor John Spurr in conversation about what is being lost and what we can hold on to.
Novelist Francesca Rhydderch recounts her struggle for a neurological diagnosis in It Might Not Be True: A Memoir of Life and Love. In danger of fighting a losing battle – with time, memory, herself – she learns there are ways to live in the present by making peace with the past.
Poet Samantha Wynne-Rhydderch’s fourth collection Milk Wood Memoir explores how the paths of her home town of New Quay – walked by Dylan Thomas and likely an inspiration for Under Milk Wood – are slowly collapsing into the sea due to coastal erosion.
