The Rime of the Ancient Mariner with Poetry at SMSA

Thursday, 14 November 2019, 12:30pm – 1:30pm

Venue: Tom Keneally Centre

Tom Keneally Centre Reading

Join the Poetry at SMSA group for a reading of The Rime of the Ancient Mariner in appreciation of Coleridge’s epic poem published in 1798.

Considered a masterpiece of world literature, Rime is a poem which can be enjoyed for its lyricism as much as its meaning, and few have not been touched by it.

The reading of this poem on this day has become a tradition in recent years at SMSA that we are delighted to continue in 2019.
