Village Books, torsdag, maj 1, 2014 kl. 7pm
The Trickster’s Hat is a 208 page hardcover, full color, workshop book that amongst other things contains 49 exercises designed to help experienced and inexperienced writers, artists, teachers and wide-eyed wonderers go deeper within themselves, expand their imaginations and break creative blocks. It’s not a 'how to do,' or a 'how to be' kinda book, it’s a mischievous companion that will hopefully stay nestling in your pocket for years to come. Come prepared with curiosity, and some great questions, to ask Bantock, the author of the reknowned Griffin and Sabine series.

Once named by the classic SF magazine Weird Tales as one of the best 85 storytellers of the century, for 20 years Bantock has spoken and read to audiences throughout North America, Europe and Australia. His new book The Trickster's Hat is based on his workshop teaching. His paintings, drawings, sculptures, and collages have been exhibited in shows in UK, France and North America and are in private collections throughout the world.
