Such beautiful streets to explore London magic! #culturefix at gorgeous Persephone bookshop, publisher to curated female authors’ works, just steps away from the no less gorgeous Charles Dickens Museum, the author’s former home. My book is « Princes from the land » by Joanna Cannan, first published in 1938. I feel so honored holding and reading her work. #persephonelondon #supportculture (at Persephone Books) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bm6qyuYh8we/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=f6zwz5owg4w5

Crime novel of Sir Clement Vyse, a sporting English gentleman, who "sets out to climb an unscaled peak of the Himalayas and comes back home the triumphant explorer to every one except his crushed, sensitive son and the woman he is to marry. Miss Cannan has drawn the fascinating and frightful picture of a murderer."
