Description
Discover how famous writers created their most notable works in unique spaces around the world. Rooms of Their Own takes you on a journey to the heart of writing rooms, from attics and studies to billiard rooms and bathtubs. You'll learn about the habits and rituals that helped great writers channel their creativity, including favourite pens, paper, and typewriters. Some authors relied on silence and seclusion, while others needed people, music, and whisky to get started. From luxury writing retreats to empty sheds in gardens, each writer's story confirms that there is no one 'best way' to write. With evocative watercolour illustrations by James Oses, this book brings you into the lives of some of history's greatest writers.
