I'm delighted to have been invited, as an old CHSG girl, to talk to the Independent Schools’ Librarians Group when they visit the impressive Canada Water Library. This new library, completed at the end of the last year, is designed by Piers Gough and stocked with 40,000 brand new books. I'm going to be leading a ‘fun’ informal session on the impact of memory on writing before we are given a formal tour of the Library.

Gough believes that libraries still hold magic realms of invention, realms of ideas; hence this ‘celebratory’ building (Moore, Rowan. (2011) Canada Water library – review Available at: http://www.guardian.co.uk/artanddesig... (Accessed: 17/09/12).


 


I'll also be signing copies of ROOK and The Devil's Music  provided by George Hanratty from ‘Tales on Moon Lane’ Bookshop, who is kindly offering a 10% discount .
