Meet the author at Booka Bookshop

You might have heard this book read on Radio 4 this week, now is the chance to meet the author.  Apologies for this notice being so last minute - will try to do better next time.

Booka Bookshop, Oswestry tonight, 8th December 7 - 9pm

Mark Forsyth - The Horologicon

Join us for an evening jaunt through the lost words of the English language as Mark Forsyth talks about his new book The Horologicon at Booka on Saturday 8th December at 7.00pm.

The Horologicon is a book of the strangest and most beautiful words in the English language arranged by the hour of the day when you will really need them. Words for breakfast, for commuting, for working, for dining, for drinking and for getting lost on the way home.

Mark is an author, blogger, journalist, proofreader and ghostwriter. He can be found dispelling the grammar myths we were all taught in his popular blog, the Inky Fool. He is the author of the bestselling The Etymologicon & now The Horologicon.

Tickets £5 (redeemable against book purchase). Refreshments provided.
