Dr Ella Westland, author of Reading Daphne, leads an informal reading group discussion on du Maurier’s House on the Strand. In this haunting work, written on the cusp of Daphne du Maurier’s reluctant move to Kilmarth, her time-travelling narrator draws the reader deep into the seductive Cornish past that she imagined for her new home. But will the professor’s experimental drugs continue to work and can her troubled protagonist survive the ordeal?
Participants should have read the novel. No further preparation is necessary. Just bring yourself, your copy of the book, and your enthusiasm for Daphne du Maurier! Maximum participants 16.
