Louis de Bernières – Of Love and Desire
A warm welcome back to Aye Write! to the bestselling author of Captain Corelli’s Mandolin with his new collection of love poems, Of Love and Desire. Written over a lifetime, it captures love’s many forms – from rapture, infatuation, urgency, to sorrow, heartache and disillusion. Poetry was de Bernières’ first and greatest literary love, a passion evident in the musicality and emotion of his poems, which are full of stories and the truth of lived experience. Don’t miss what will be a spell-binding evening with this master poet and story-teller.
