Always Winter and Never Christmas?


Just a quick post. If you feel like snuggling under a blanket with a glass of mulled wine to listen to writer Julia Golding, poet, priest and writer Malcom Guite, and myself discussing Christmas in Narnia and Midwinter in Middle-Earth, please draw your armchair closer to the fire and click on the link below! 

Under the aegis of the Oxford Centre for Fantasy, we cover the presence of Father Christmas in Narnia, tales of Russian frost spirits, CS Lewis's Nativity poems, 'The Father Christmas Letters' written and illustrated by JRR Tolkien for his children - and much much more, in a really enjoyable session during which each of us learned something new.
