Sedbergh Festival of Books & Drama 2009
Sunday 20th September
Event 5, Ann Lingard
Ann Lingard will be talking, with readings, and ‘props’ of pictures and interesting, even surprising, objects, about her latest novel, “The Embalmer’s Book of Recipes”, which is set mainly in present–day Cumbria.
Westwood Books, 4:00pmFree
From taxidermy, giants and Jeremy Bentham’s shrunken head, to scrapie in sheep, quasicrystals and Maurits Escher’s intricate patterns of animals, there will surely be something to entertain you. You are warmly invited to come along for a relaxing and entertaining session.
Ann Lingard, writer and broadcaster, is a former scientist, who has lived and worked in Cambridge, Oregon and Glasgow, and now lives on a small–holding in North–West Cumbria where she keeps a few sheep.
