Animali: A slow reading group
Animali is an online reading group meeting on the first Tuesday of every month. It will be an informal space for collectively reading meaningful texts about animals.
It is open to anyone, with no prior reading or experience needed to join other than an interest in animals and reading with others. There is no expectation or requirement to attend all sessions.
The next session is Tuesday July 1, from 6:30-8:30pm BST. We will be reading ‘Sheep do have opinions’ by Vinciane Despret. We’ll read out loud together, stopping as desired to discuss the text, with no obligation to read or speak unless you want to.
Sign up to join the reading group. A copy of the text will be provided during the session.
