The Libre Livre team hit Oxford this weekend. What a fabulous city. And what a wonderful literary heritage it has. Binding and printing have been carried out here for generations. At one stage Oxford was more or less the only city in the country, London apart, in which the mysteries of book arts were part of regular city life. Certainly some of the earliest printing houses in Europe were based here.
On Sunday we headed back Lewes-wards where we attended AS Byatt's talk at the Charleston Festival, an afternoon not to be missed. Her latest book is based around the production of Children's literature a topic which will be addressed more fully in this blog in coming days.
