SUMMARY:Have They Come For Me? A guided walk tracing Law and Literature in Dorchester with Mark Damon Chutter
DESCRIPTION:Law and Literature in Dorchester: Meet at The Thomas Hardy Statue at the Top O’ Town \n\n\n\nJoin Mark Damon Chutter\, Chairman and Academic Director of the Thomas Hardy Society\, for a fascinating walk tracing the justice system in Dorchester\, and some of the literary narratives surrounding it.
