[Milton-L] Recitations of PL

[Neil Forsyth]

Hi Angelica

As you know, there was a flurry of activity a few years ago. I  
organized a reading here in Lausanne about ten years ago, in a lovely  
garden in a place called Apples (!). I wrote to the M-list about it  
at the time. I think that was the first in a non-Anglophone community.

Best

Neil
