Join us in store to celebrate some newly published Cornish novels by authors whose passion for the county is made clear in their novels.
About this Event

Liz Fenwick, Linda Wilgus and Susanna Kearsley will be joining us to chat about their newly published novels evoking the Cornwall they all love to write about.
Liz celebrates the magic of Helston's Flora Day in both the title and the content of her most recent novel just in advance of the day itself. It joins Liz's catalogue of novels set in the county that exemplify her love of Cornwall.
Linda's novel, The sea Child, is a love story set on the Cornish shore. Both magical and historical it is very different to Liz's tale but equally enchanting.
Making up the trio is Susanna Kearsley with her rereleased novel, The Rose Garden. A gem in historical fiction set in Cornwall, an author described here by Diana Gabaldon
'I've loved every one of Susanna's books! She has bedrock research and a butterfly's delicate touch with characters - historical fiction that pulls you in and won't let go!'
We are delighted to welcome these three very experienced authors to join us to find out exactly what it is that inspires them to write with such fondness about the county that they are connected to.
