About
Join novelist ANNA HOPE as she discusses her wonderful new novel ALBION .
This evening is an 'open book group' event, where we invite you to buy and read Anna's book before the event, then join members of our 3 bookshop bookgroups to hear Anna discuss her inspirations and research, and hopefully contribute to an interesting discussion about the book!
About ALBION
This compelling, beautiful novel weaves some of the most pressing issues of our time into a complex, absorbing family drama.
The Brooke family are gathering at their ancestral pile, deep in the Sussex countryside, to bid a final farewell to Philip; husband, father, 1960's trailblazer, festival-organiser, womaniser, re-wilding pioneer .... Each of his 3 children bears scars from childhood trauma, each has their own agenda for the memorial weekend, and the arrival of mysterious Clara from America, bearing a shocking truth, turns the already simmering tension up to boiling point.... A story of family, political and global legacy which is deeply rooted in the natural world.
