Hi you all: we have another Books & Booze evening for you in store. Friday, 13th of December, we will be discussing the wonderful novel Possession by the late A.S. Byatt.
According to the back cover Possession is ‘an exhilarating novel of wit and romance, at once an intellectual mystery and a triumphant love story. It is the tale of a pair of young scholars researching the lives of two Victorian poets. As they uncover their letters, journals and poems, and track their movements from London to Yorkshire – from spiritualist séances to the fairy-haunted far west of Brittany – what emerges is an extraordinary counterpoint of passions and ideas.’
I read the novel years ago, when it was first published, during a walking holiday in the south of Great Britain and I still remember how much I loved this book. Rereading it now, it is still mesmerizing.
So, dear members and friends: join us for cocktails and a lively discussion about this wonderful novel on Friday, 13th of December, 17.00 hours at Walter’s Bookshop. You can apply by using the QR code or this link.
