The
beautiful Daunt Books bookshop in Marylebone frequently plays host to
interesting and insightful guest speakers, and this autumn they will be holding
a talk with the American novelist and essayist Siri Hustvedt, author of the
bestselling novel What I Loved.
On 11 September,
Hustvedt will discuss her most recent release, a collection of essays entitled A Woman Looking at Men Looking at Women.
These essays examine ideas about the mind, sex, and art from a feminist
perspective, and draw influence from the arts and the sciences.
