Manchester: Alchemical City
Don’t miss Jeanette Winterson’s new documentary ‘Manchester: Alchemical City’, which airs on Radio 4 next week. Jeanette, who is one of our Honorary Patrons, takes a personal look at the history of the city which shaped her young life, and visits Chetham’s Library as part of her investigations.
The programme is on daily at 1.45pm.
