I was so lucky tonight to watch this video with two hugely enthusiastic smiling ladies discussing meetings that I could never attend because at the time I had not been invented. No matter how wealthy you are, there is nothing more inspiring that having fascinating, lively conversations with creative people.
Thank you so much for passing on your enthusiasm!

Thanks for making this video! I just finished Jenny Uglow's book last week and enjoyed it thoroughly! It even inspired me to write a poem about my enthusiasm for learning about these amazing individuals and their world. Next to read is Patricia Fara's book on Erasmus Darwin. He and Jason Priestly I found the most fascinating. Thank you Jenny for all your research!

The lunar men is one of my favourite non fiction books! Does anyone know the piano 🎹 🎶piece that plays at the beginning and the end? I would love to know
