Postcards from Europe, with Luke Darracott
Secret Kingdoms is delighted to welcome back author and wine guru Luke Darracott to talk about Postcards from Europe, a collection of selected writings from a decade of travels around Europe.
Worthy of comparison with Laurie Lee, Jan Morris, Patrick Leigh Fermor, Bill Bryson and many others, this book is a thoughtful, poetic and gastronomic look at Europe both large and small.
From great capitals to isolated villages, and from city squares to far off valleys, Postcards From Europe will transport you to the prettiest corners and the tastiest foods, hopefully with a laugh here and there for your troubles.
Luke Darracott.. a writer, a wine expert, a translator, an amateur photographer, traveller, food-lover, Hispanophile, Japanophile, presenter, linguist and adventurer based in Madrid. He is never without his notebook, his camera and his phone and can usually be found walking up a mountain or sitting and scribbling in a corner of a Spanish bar with a bottle of sherry.
He can otherwise be tracked down in his excellent wine shop, Madrid & Darracott.
The Event will include an interview with Luke about the book, plus a Q&A.
Refreshments will be served and there will be a signing. The event is free, places are limited, and we ask that you buy a 3€ voucher, redeemable at the event.
