SUMMARY:Literature Group: Jane Austen & Everton
DESCRIPTION:Dr Janet Hollinshead will talk about Jane Austen and her unexpected connection to Everton. \nThe novel Godmersham Park\, by Gill Hornby\, appeared in 2022. It is the story of Anne Sharp – the governess to Jane Austen’s niece who lived in Kent. It is surprising where the author’s notes can take a local historian – to the Athenaeum library and even to Everton. \nAttendance of this talk is free of charge to Athenaeum Members.

SUMMARY:Dinner with Spencer Leigh
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday 30th May we welcome local author and journalist Spencer Leigh to the Athenaeum. \nIn his younger days Spencer was an actuary for Royal Life and wrote about music in his spare time. He has written 25 books and hundreds of sleeve notes.  He is proud to have reached No. 1 with the soundtrack album for Heartbeat\, although (he says) of course nobody bought it for his sleeve note. His latest book is on Little Richard. \nSpencer is one of the world‘s leading experts on Merseybeat and the Beatles and has a fund of stories about the time when Liverpool was the centre of the pop music universe\, as well as about musical legends from both Britain and America. In his talk\, entitled In My Anecdotage\, Spencer will tell us about some of the personalities he has interviewed over the years. \nFollowing the talk we will enjoy a three course dinner in the Dining Room\, after which we can relax in the Newsroom until closing time. \nDo not miss the chance to get a unique insight into the world of pop and rock from someone who was there. \nBook your place now via the Members’ Area or through the Concierge. \nTickets: £35 \n  \nMenu \nStarter \nClassic Prawn Cocktail \nMarie Rose Sauce \n-ooOoo- \nBreaded Brie (V) \nOnion Compote \nMain Course \nCoq au Vin \nFrench Beans\, Sauté Potato \n-ooOoo- \nWild Mushroom Crepe Gratin (V) \nTruffled Spinach \nSauté Potato \nDessert \nBlack Forest Cheese Cake \n  \nEvent Schedule \n6:30pm – Arrivals and welcome \n7:00pm – In My Anecdotage: a talk by Spencer Leigh followed by Q & A. \n8:00pm – Dinner \n10:30pm – Last orders
