Firebird: A Bloomsbury Love Story

Please join us in our library at 7pm on Wednesday 28th September when we have a conversation from novelist and Bloomsbury expert Susan Sellers.

Susan Sellers is the author of many books and for twenty-six years was Professor of English Literature and Creative Writing at St Andrews University in Scotland. Her first novel 'Vanessa and Virginia' about sisters Virginia Woolf and Vanessa Bell was translated into seventeen languages and adapted for the stage. Susan will be talking about her recently published and acclaimed novel 'Firebird', which tells the surprising story of Bloomsbury's most unlikely lovers: the Cambridge economist John Maynard Keynes and the intoxicating Russian ballerina Lydia Lopokova.
