Would you like a sneak peek at the famous Reading Rooms? \nBuilt more than a century ago\, Gladstone’s Library is one of the hidden gems of North Wales. While the Library is open to day visitors who wish to enjoy spending time in the grounds of this Victorian Gothic landmark\, the Reading Rooms are silent study spaces usually only accessible to registered Readers or residential guests staying here overnight. \nSteeped in local and national history\, this is the UK’s only Prime Ministerial library and a rare example of a residential library. Known originally as St. Deiniol’s Library\, it was renamed in 2010 to reflect its connections with founder and four-times Prime Minister William Ewart Gladstone. \nBy booking onto a Glimpse\, you will be given a talk about the building\, its purpose\, its links to UK and world affairs and the ways in which it has evolved through time. You will also be able to peep inside the Reading Rooms\, where researchers\, writers and scholars of all kinds come to make use of the extensive collections and to work in silence. \nAll Glimpses last approximately 30 minutes.

What is the best way to structure and pace a memoir strand within a larger work\, and how to find the balance between the different types of material? \nAs a writer\, how much of yourself should you share with readers? What are the possible ramifications of putting too much\, or too little\, of yourself on the page? Together\, participants will explore all facets\, from the emotional to the practical\, of this highly effective technique for writing.  As the author of two books that are structured around memoir — The Way to the Sea (2019) and A Body Made of Glass (2024) — Caroline Crampton has spent a lot of time considering these questions and will explore them here through talks and exercises with class participants. \nPhotograph by Jamie Drew.
