Writing About William Morris: A Talk by James Lee
February 10 @ 14:00 - 15:00
James Lee will be giving a talk about his latest novel at Morrab Library on Saturday 10th February.
Topsy & Co. is centred on the life of one of the most iconic figures of the 19th century – William Morris. It shines a light on the network of writers and artists connected to him (e.g. Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Lizzie Siddal, Jane Morris, Edward Burne-Jones, Algernon Swinburne) and chronicles William Morris’s epic journey from naïve romantic to political activist and acclaimed designer, poet, and novelist.
James lives in Cornwall, and Topsy & Co. is his third novel.
