About this Event
Enchanted Islands book launch
You are warmly invited to an enchanting evening at Daunt Books Marylebone on Tuesday 30 April from 6.30–8 pm to celebrate the launch of Enchanted Islands: Travels Through Myth & Magic, Love & Loss by Laura Coffey.
This is Laura's debut book and the story of her journey around the islands of the Mediterranean searching for the real-life inspiration behind the fantastical lands of The Odyssey. It combines travel writing with memoir and nature writing (birds, cold water swimming) with, of course, a twist of mythology.
Spend the evening with a narcissistic polyamorous Greek hero, be transported to wild sea-kingdoms where witches and goddesses and one-eyed monsters roam, navigate sea-monsters and whirlpools, drink the wine of the gods, and celebrate launching this beauty out into the world.
This event is also a way of honouring the memory of Dr Paul Coffey, Laura's wonderful father, who asked her to write, and who would have been so proud.
