About

Henry Arthur Thorpe

Henry is originally from Somerset, with a particular ‎love of traditional folk tales, folk songs and the ‎unusual. Henry studied English at the University of ‎York and has been published in many collections and ‎tries to perform as often as possible. He has been seen ‎teaching literature in various locations, trying his best ‎to bring back the love of language and wordcraft that ‎seems lacking in this ever more technological society. ‎He has been known to get excited over etymology ‎over a pint of cider, or to have heated debates on the ‎motivations of Shakespeare characters or long dead ‎writers.‎
