In this illustrated talk our guest, the award-winning author Marc Blake, will presents his latest work, Spirit of the Blitz , a thriller for young adults set in one of the most fascinating and dangerous periods in London’s history.

Marc delves into the subterranean existence of thousands of Londoners during the 57-night London Blitz of 1940/41 and describes how they coped with wartime living conditions, particularly during the night-time raids. As if this were not dangerous enough, the young protagonist, Will, discovers something else to worry about, lurking in the dark tunnels of the Tube.
