INNOCENCE BETRAYED: TWO CLASSIC NOVELS BY CLASSIC WRITERS

Antonia White's Frost in May and Elizabeth Bowen's The Death of the Heart

A One-Day Literature Course

Saturday 3rd November 2018

10.30 - 4.30

If you attend a regular book group and would like to take your conversations to a deeper level, or if you simply love literature and want to share your thoughts, why not try a day of insightful discussion led by writer and lecturer Lynn Knight in the elegant surroundings of The Art Workers' Guild?

'Intense, troubling, semi-miraculous' was Elizabeth Bowen's assessment of Frost in May (1933), Antonia White's classic portrait of a repressive convent school. Bowen's own novel, The Death of the Heart (1938), tells of sixteen-year-old Portia who, in the words of Tessa Hadley, 'wants to live now, not later'. Both are passionate narratives of innocence betrayed. Join us for the day to explore these two compelling novels at a beautiful venue in central London.
