Simonetta Wenkert just made this sunny September morning brighter by popping in to sign copies of her new book IDA: AT MY TABLE!

Part memoir, part cookbook, all vivid prose, IDA tells the story of how and why the beloved restaurant came to be. In 2007 Simonetta and her husband Avi put aside their respective careers to realise their dream of bringing regional Italian food to London. Twenty-seven years later the restaurant has become an internationally renowned fixture in the city and this book is a testament to its perseverance and success.

Today we were treated to a visit from William Smalley , who kindly signed his architectural tome QUIET SPACES!

This beautiful book brings together Smalley’s interior designs and the buildings around the world that have inspired him. Harry Crowder’s photography for the collection pulls readers into the intimacy of these elegant spaces. The work also includes a foreword by this year’s Booker Prize judge Edmund de Waal.

It was wonderful to welcome local writer Rachel Cockerell and Lucy Hughes-Hallett this Tuesday to discuss Cockerell’s debut work ‘Melting Point’. Exclusively using source material to capture history Cockerell explores how, in 1907, a group of Russian Jews set sail to Texas to find a new life.

The evening’s conversation explored personal histories, researching the archives, and what it means to exclude one’s own voice from the telling of history. A fascinating conversation from two wonderful storytellers of our pasts.

Join us to hear award-winning author Catherine Chidgey talk about The Axeman’s Carnival with Emily Rhodes — next Wednesday 8th May, 6.30pm

The novel tells the story of the magpie Tama; part trickster, part surrogate child; part witness, the more Tama sees, the more the animal and human worlds bleed into one another. Like Catherine’s previous novel, Pet — an international bestseller — this novel is deliciously dark, thrilling, and utterly original.

Tickets are £6 — including a free glass of w**e or soft drink — and can be bought on our website following the link in our bio.

Our book pick for February is Cursed Bread by Sophie Mackintosh, a strange and lyrical fictionalisation of an unsolved mystery: the mass poisoning of a small French village.

Elodie is trapped in a passionless marriage with the village baker, and spends her days dreaming of love and adventure from behind the till of the bakery. This existence is disrupted by the arrival of two mysterious, glamorous newcomers to the village, an ambassador and his tortured wife — change which brings relief, and then tragedy. Billed by The Times as a ‘dreamy sapphic romp’, this novel is a thrilling, incisive exploration of desire’s corrosive power.

The Irish Times has called Ferdia Lennon’s ‘Glorious Exploits’ one of the best debut novels in years — Elsa would agree! Lennon toes the line between hilarity and restraint, imbuing history with playful modern twists. An ideal choice for fans of Euripides and James Acaster!
