News about the revised and expanded edition of Decadent London.
It's now stocked by the following bookshops:
Treadwells
Watkins
Gay's The Word
The Brick Lane Bookshop
Tate Britain will be stocking Decadent London in their bookshop. As there is a major Aubrey Beardsley exhibition about to open this is wonderful news and I would hope that sales will be good if the book is prominently displayed.
It's the largest exhibition of Aubrey Beardsley drawings for 50 years and runs from 4 March to 25 May. As well as his own distinctive works the exhibition includes artworks that were important inspirations for him including those by Edward Burne-Jones and Gustave Moreau.
More about the Beardsley show here.
I'm doing some talks about Decadent London:
Thursday 20 February Treadwells Bookshop here
Thursday 9 April City of Westminster Archives Centre (details to follow)
Also a non-decadent talk about underground folklore of England
Thursday 27 February Kensington Central Library here (part of Fantasy February)
