Shades of Grey?

In our May meeting Persephone Books will be coming to speak to us about their work reprinting out of print fiction and non-fiction written by women.

Persephone Books in Lambs Conduit Street was established in 1999 by Nicola Beauman with the aim to resurrect forgotten and out of date novels written by women. With their distinctive grey covers the books covers a wide range of subject matter and reflect the lives of women throughout the late 19th and 20th century.

Where? We will be meeting at our usual home of St George's, Bloomsbury. Upper Vestry Room, St George's Bloomsbury, 6 Little Russell Street, London WC1A 2HR. Doors open at 6:00pm for a 6:30pm start.

Please bring along refreshments to share with the group, (they don’t have to be home made!)

Membership for 2013 is £33.00. Membership is non refundable and will expire at the end of the year. Guests are very welcome (£3 for non-WI members) If you would like to come along to the next meeting then email us at londonwestendwi@gmail.com.

See you there!
