Mythical creatures in Scandinavian Folklore

By Lena Heide-Brennand

£50 - books ordered online can be collected on the night only

Lena Heide-Brennand’s lecture series on the fascinating and spellbinding tales about the many mythical creatures of Scandinavian folklore have been very popular at the Last Tuesday Society and sold hundreds of tickets to the different events online and in house talks. Lena decided to turn her lectures into a book and this book is now a reality.
629 pages filled with legends, tales, spine-chilling illustrations and traditional artwork in the shape of a beautiful coffee table book is what we are celebrating this evening.
Link to purchase book on Amazon will be here
The warmest of welcome to this special book launch where the author herself will read excerpts, sing the traditional folksongs from Scandinavia that are included in the book and treat you to a mesmerizing story telling séance where these legendary creatures will crawl out of the book and join the celebration.
