English Folk Tales of Coast and Sea – at FOLDE Shaftesbury

November 19 @ 7:00 pm 9:00 pm

Our folklore and history are scattered with tall tales of the high seas, mysteries of the unknown world beneath the ocean surface, and the coast where human life meets the salt sea. This book is a collection of traditional folk tales from the coasts and seas of England, retold with a contemporary twist by Lisa Schneidau. Within these pages you’ll find magic and monsters, sailor heroes and ghost ships, and even mermaids and shapeshifters.

Immerse yourself in these sea stories and let the current of England’s mysterious ocean world sweep you away as Lisa shares tales of the folklore, nature and more.

This event is brought to you by FOLDE Dorset in partnership with the Grosvenor Arms.
