Event: London Stories Live with Mark Mason and Hannah Velten Monday 2nd March

“Three authors reveal the inspiration behind their London stories and give short readings. Travis Elborough’s book, ‘A London Year: 365 days of the city life in diaries, journals and letters’ is an anthology of diary entries from Tudor times to the 21st century. Hannah Velten discusses ‘Beastly London’ and how animals have always been important in the story of London, while Mark Mason describes his odyssey over several hundred miles as he walked the entire length of the London Underground system – over-ground – passing every station along the way in his book, ‘Walk the Lines’. The audience will have the opportunity to purchase books and have them signed after the event.”
