Launch party for Slightly Foxed paperback editions
Ysenda Maxtone Graham and editor Gail Pirkis
23rd February 6.30pm, FREE!
To round out the Dulwich Books Indie Presses series, the well-loved magazine Slightly Foxed will be having a party to celebrate the launch of its first ever paperback editions!
The paperbacks will be the soft-cover pick of their hardback range, re-publishing classic memoirs which have undeservedly slipped out of print. Ysenda Maxtone Graham will be talking about her hilarious and unusual Mr Tibbits’s Catholic School, a memoir-cum-history of St Philip’s school, of which A. N. Wilson writes, ‘Ysenda has the passionate nosiness of the novelist…she knows how a tiny detail can bring a whole character, a whole scene, to life.’
Slightly Foxed editor Gail Pirkis will also be speaking about editing a journal that, in their own words, is ‘more like a bookish friend’ than a regular periodical. Slightly Foxed publish articles to be enjoyed, mulled-over and shared among friends. ‘Companionable and unstuffy’ might be the best way to describe this elegant cream-coloured journal.
