Talk and book signing – The Whispers of Rock by Dr Anjana Khatwa

Join us for an inspiring afternoon with Dr. Anjana Khatwa, geologist, storyteller, and author of The Whispers of Rock. In this captivating talk, Dr. Khatwa will reveal the hidden stories and ancient wisdom locked within the rocks beneath our feet.

Discover how the earth’s stones have shaped human life, culture, and spirituality—from the sacred geometry of Stonehenge and the rose-red cliffs of Petra, to the majestic rise of mountains and the humblest grains of sand.

Dr. Khatwa blends modern science, ancient lore, and human emotion to show how geology connects us all. Her message is one of hope and reconnection; a call to listen to the earth’s whispers and rediscover our place within its timeless story.

Following the talk, Dr. Khatwa will be signing copies of The Whispers of Rock — a beautifully written narrative that intertwines geology, culture, and spirituality. Books will be available for purchase on-site.

Dr. Khatwa is an award-winning Earth scientist, presenter, and author who brings the natural world to life through storytelling and science. Her work bridges geology and humanity, encouraging all of us to find meaning in the landscapes around us.
