Welcome all avid fans of historical fiction! We meet every 6-8 weeks in central London.
Our new venue will be Queen Elizabeth Hall on the South Bank.
Just to clarify: the "London" in the group name relates to where the group is based. It doesn't relate specifically to London history. We are reading historical fiction set all over the world!
At our last meetup, we discussed "Empress Orchid" by Anchee Min.
At the next meetup in early December, we will discuss "Affinity" by Sarah Waters. Please go to the Poll section to vote on the date.
Our previous group reads were: "The Last Queen" by CW Gortner, "The Suspicions of Mr. Whicher: or the Murder at Road Hill House" by Kate Summerscale, "The Floating Book" by Michelle Lovric, "I, Claudius" by Robert Graves, "The Last English King" by Julian Rathbone and "The Lost Diary of Don Juan" by Douglas Carlton Abrams.
We're definitely looking for new members at any time, so if you're interested, get in touch for more details.
Either sign up here or send a direct email to histfict@gmail.com for details.
