"Wendy Cope has achieved both critical and popular acclaim through her poetry and it’s wonderful that she will be performing here in Haworth.
She reads in a wonderful, entertaining way and I’m sure that we’re in for a real treat. Her poetry is very different to that of the Brontës, but this is part of our intention to establish Haworth not just as a heritage centre but as vibrant creative centre too" (Andrew McCarthy, Deputy Director, Brontë Parsonage Museum)
