Lemony Snicket

The brilliant author of the bestselling A Series of Unfortunate Events is coming to Bath to celebrate his brand-new book for curious young readers and adults alike – a cautionary tale about his own demise…

For more than twenty years, Lemony Snicket has led millions of young readers through a mysterious world of bewildering questions and unfortunate events. With this latest book – a love letter to readers young and old about the vagaries of real life – long-time fans and new readers alike will experience Snicket’s distinctive voice in a new way.

This true story – as true as Lemony Snicket himself – begins with a puzzling note under his door: You had poison for breakfast. Following a winding trail of clues to solve the mystery of his own demise, Snicket takes us on a thought-provoking tour of his predilections…

And now, Mr Snicket – who has been a friend of our bookshop for a while – joins us to tell us his tale in person!

First, we welcome you to join us in our children’s section at around 3:30-4pm for some fiendishly delicious treats before we move across the road the Bath Abbey for our talk with Lemony which begins at 4:30pm.
