If anybody can tame literature into a “little history”, it is John Sutherland – celebrated author of classics like Is Heathcliff a Murderer?. A Little History of Literature offers a unique angle on canonical works including Beowulf, Don Quixote, 1984 and Harry Potter, and examines fascinating neglected areas –The Da Vinci Code, obscenity in runes and self-publishing.
Come and navigate the bookshelves with a seasoned explorer of the written word.
