Book Launch – Simon Edge ‘A Right Royal Face Off’

August 1, 2019 @ 6:00 pm8:00 pm

Join us for a book signing of Simon Edge’s latest book A Right Royal Face Off

“A humorous approach seemed all the more fitting given that the events of A Right Royal Face-Off, which will be published in July 2019, take place in the Georgian era. This was the age of fops, dandies and courtesans, an anything-goes epoch of pre-Victorian decadence which was a heyday – think Swift, Fielding, Sterne, Thackeray and Austen – of comic or satirical literature.”
Simon Edge

“One part mystery, one part history, one part satire, and wholly entertaining. A hilarious portrait of the artist as a frustrated man, Simon Edge’s novel is a glorious comedy of painting and pretension”
Ryan O’Neill

“I loved this book, a laugh-out-loud contemporary satire skewering today’s tired reality TV formats married with a tale of vicious rivalry in the world of 18th-century royal portraiture. Simon Edge manages to pin asses’ ears onto the lot of them, to great comic effect”
Liz Trenow

Free event with refreshments.
