On Wednesday 29th June at 7pm, as part of Warwick Books ‘Meet The Author’ series, Salley Vickers will be talking about her book ‘Aphrodite’s Hat’ at Warwick Library

 The stories in this long-awaited collection by Salley Vickers all deal with psychological aspects of love: love given and withheld, love craved and lost, love met and disappointed; the differing shades of loves between friends, between parents and children, between children and other adults; love even, in one case, for a pet. Psychologically acute, sharply written in lucid and often witty prose, these stories, set in Venice, Greece and Rome as well as London and the English countryside, take us into the complex geography of the human heart.

Sometimes joyous and humorous, sometimes melancholy and poignant, this collection confirms Salley Vickers’ reputation as one of our most subtle and engaging writers. Salley will be talking a bout ‘Aphrodite’s Hat’ also in the context of her other books including  ‘The Other Side of You’  and ‘Dancing Backwards?

Sure to be a memorable evening for all our Salley Vickers fans.

Tickets for this event are FREE but must be booked in advance from Warwick Books, Kenilworth Books, Warwick Library or Kenilworth Library. This talk is arranged by Warwick Books as part of their ‘Meet The Author’ series with Warwick Library. We are delighted that Salley’s publisher Harper Collins have supported us in putting on this event.
