We will be joined by Julia Golding for our March ‘In Conversation With’ event. Julia will be discussing her book 'Wardrobes and Rings: Through Lenten Lands with the Inklings'.
Ever wanted to step through the wardrobe to Narnia? Or move to Middle-earth? In this book, you get the nearest thing to a trip into these worlds this Lent. Guiding you will be the poet-priest, the professor, and the novelist.
Julia Golding is a multi-award-winning novelist, writing for adults, young adults and children. Over a million of her books have been published around the world in over 20 languages. She began her career with The Diamond of Drury Lane, which won the Nestle (Smarties) Gold Award and the Waterstones Children’s Book of the Year. She has most recently written a series for children called Jane Austen Investigates (SPCK/Lion) and an adult Regency puzzle thriller series for HarperCollins, beginning with The Persephone Code. She’s also director of the Oxford Centre for Fantasy, a small educational charity established to honour the life, work and faith of the Inklings which has a large online following. Her book will be available for sale.
Join us for an evening of conversation and exploration followed by a short service of compline.
