Seeing Voices by Oliver Sachs (1989) 185 pp : Learning BSL on 5 February 2026 at 19:30 at James's

Having immersed ourselves in a psychological account of what it is to be deaf, and the importance of the purely visual, through the book, we will also bring our imagination and dexterity to the fore by trying a simple bsl conversation.
I would like to get our little circle to spend a little of their lives learning some entry level BSL and bringing one or two statements to a session ( a few months into the season) to see if they can make themselves understood, and then reflect (orally) about the process, the challenges, and any revelations.
