Based on William Caxton’s bestselling 1481 English translation of the Middle Dutch, but expanded with new interpretations, innovative language and characterisation, this edition is an imaginative retelling of the Reynard story.

Monday 16 November 2020, 7–8pm GMT – Register at crowdcast.io/e/reynard-the-fox-book.
