Edward Lear in Corfu

I regret that I cannot be in Corfu for the opening events of the Edward Lear Bicentenary Exhibition (open to the public from 25 May), but I did find this video on Lear in Corfu, on YouTube.


Don't forget to go to Plous Bookshop (Nikiforo Theotoki 91, Corfu Town) if you want to find a copy of "Edward Lear: The Corfu Years" (ed. Philip Sherrard) or my "The Ionian Islands and Epirus, A Cultural History". Stocks may be limited.

The new fine bust of Edward Lear, by sculptress Margot Rouleau Gallais.

Copies of "Lear's Corfu", ed. Lawrence Durrell, although rare, can still be found (Alibris)
