Thursday 6th June, 6.30pm

Join Dr Priyamvada Gopal at Heffers bookshop as she talks about her new book, 'Insurgent Empire: Anticolonialism and the Making of British Dissent', a book that reframes the narrative, focussing on how resistance in the colonies changed British ideas of freedom.

Much has been written on how colonial subjects took up British and European ideas and turned them against empire when making claims to freedom and self-determination. The possibility of reverse influence has been largely overlooked.

Join Sarah Watling at Heffers Bookshop for a talk on her biography of the Olivier sisters. The event will be chaired by Dr Gill Sutherland of Newnham College.

The four Olivier sisters were emancipated, determined and wild in an age when society punished women for being so. Margery and Daphne studied at Cambridge at a time when education was still thought to be damaging to ovaries. There they met Rupert Brooke and formed the Neo Pagans, initiating a web of entanglements that would challenge even the sisters' unbreakable bond. Drawing on recently available personal documents and interviews with their descendants, Noble Savages brings the four sisters in from the margins, tracing lives that span the colonial leisure of the Caribbean, the bucolic life of Victorian progressives, the frantic optimism of Edwardian Cambridge, the bleakness of war, their links with the Bloomsbury Group, and a host of evolving philosophies for life over the course of the twentieth century.

Tuesday 9th July, 6.30pm

Get bogged down in Britain's most distinctive, complex, man-made, and least understood landscape as Francis Pryor talks about his latest book at Heffers.

In The Fens, Francis counterpoints the history of the Fenland landscape and its transformation - the great drainage projects that created the Old and New Bedford Rivers, the Ouse Washes and Bedford Levels, the rise of prosperous towns and cities, such as King's Lynn, Cambridge, Peterborough, Boston and Lincoln - with the story of his own discovery of it as an archaeologist.
