We’re marking the new year – a belated Blwyddyn Newydd Dda to you all! – by celebrating the work of the late, great Jan Morris; author, travel writer, historian, and daughter of Eifionydd. Join us this January to discuss 'Conundrum' – a personal account, first published in 1974, of her ten-year transition from man to woman – as well as short extracts from her unique body of work.
Try to read 'Conundrum' in advance if possible, but if you can’t don’t worry – we’ll read passages aloud during the session. All welcome, especially those new to writing from Wales.

The Dark Philosophers is an open reading group which brings the literature of Wales out of the shadows. Encompassing writing in Welsh and English, contemporary and ancient, rural and urban, we are building a reading list as expansive and complex as this small nation itself. It is hosted in partnership by Cymry Glasgow and The Outwith Agency.
