Peter Ackroyd - Hawksmoor
In the run up to the London Olympic games we'll be discussing four novels which focus on different aspects of the United Kingdom’s colourful and historic capital city.
This
week we talk to acclaimed novelist, biographer and critic Peter Ackroyd
who will be discussing his haunting Whitbread prize-winning novel,
Hawksmoor, with an audience at St George's Church, Bloomsbury.
St
George's is the final church designed by lauded architect of the
English Baroque, Nicholas Hawksmoor, a central and sinister figure in
this compelling murder mystery set amongst the labyrinthine streets of
18th Century London.
