Wordy Wednesday: Brian Leads the Literary
London Pub Walk Tonight
A Literary London line to tide you over
until you join me on my walk this evening at 7pm…
Brian's Favourite Bookshops No.2
Persephone Books in 59 Lambs Conduit Street
Specialises in interwar writers many of
whom are out of print. They also promote female writers although not
exclusively. The production of the books is excellent, often the end papers are
prints from the year of original publication and many reflect the work of the
Bloomsbury group.
Meet Brian at 7pm, Holborn Tube station.
There's no need to book. A London Walk costs £10 (£8 concession)

Brian, a
professionally qualified Blue Badge Guide, won the London Tourist Board's Guide
of the Year Award in 1994. His career has embraced the law, surveying,
catering, dispatch riding and art - and the stage may be beckoning. Now, anyone
for a soundbite?
And if you'd like a completely independent take on Brian's guiding, well, read this
Marylebone Journal review of his Old
Marylebone walk.
A London Walk costs £10 – £8 concession. To join a London Walk, simply meet your guide at the designated tube station at the appointed time. Details of all London Walks can be found at www.walks.com.
