Essex Book Festival: The Grammar of Angels Edward Wilson-Lee

Fri 20 June 2025 Time: 7:00pm - 9:00pm

We're thrilled to be hosting the Essex Book Festival for this exciting event with Edward Wilson-Lee,  looking at his book 'The Grammar of Angels'. Here is some information from the organisers: 

The Grammar of Angels tells how Renaissance prodigy and polymath Giovanni Pico della Mirandola dedicated his short, brilliant life to a quest to find the sublime; to reconcile all existing thought into a philosophy that would settle the most important questions about human existence. This philosophy would, he believed, provide tools by which man could transcend his mortal limitations and join the ranks of angels.

This event will include an audience Q&A and after the event there will be an opportunity to get your book signed by Edward.

Tickets: £15 / £12 concessions (Students, Under 27s and Unwaged)

Box Office: essexbookfestival.org.uk or Mercury Theatre 01206 573948
