Peter Ackroyd’s is one of the authentic voices of London: his novels, histories, biographies and so much more capture the rhythms of the city.

This tour celebrates his portrayal of the riverside East End as a place of monsters and darkness. It features readings from three of his novels: ‘Hawksmoor’, ‘The Casebook of Victor Frankenstein’ and ‘Dan Leno and the Limehouse Golem’.

PLEASE NOTE: there are occasional references to violence – do take this into account when booking.

This is a virtual tour hosted live via Zoom video conferencing, where your guide will show slides and give a talk to accompany them. There will be the opportunity for questions both during and after the talk.
