Tues 23rd Nov: Lev Parikian - A British Year Through Japan's 72 Seasons


Join Lev Parikian (bird-watcher, nature writer and conductor) as he discusses his wonderful new book, Light Rains Sometimes Fall: A British Year through Japan?s 72 Seasons. By turns reflective, witty and joyous, this is both a nature diary and a revelation of the beauty of the small and subtle changes of the everyday.


He adopts the structure of the traditional Japanese calendar with its 72 micro-seasons. He charts the changes that each of these ancient microseasons (of a just a few days each) bring to his local South London patch - from the birds nesting in his garden on Knights Hill to the woods at the top of Streatham Common and the foxes of West Norwood Cemetery.


Location: Dulwich Books, 6 Croxted Road, West Dulwich, SE21 8SW

Time: 19.00 ? 20.30


Price: ?5 (Admission) / ?17 (Admission + copy of Light Rains Sometimes Fall, RRP ?14.99)

    • You can get a card at the till, though, to get the discount. You don't have to carry it with you (or load it onto your phone), you can just get a different card each time. Not sure what happens if they notice 🤣
    • Yes..that may be the case but membership STARTING at £115 a month is still unafforable for many. Council gyms also have a large range of equipment and I had a  PT at Dulwich leisure centre when I was in Full Time employment who was incredible and even kept in contact during lockdown giving me a program I could do at home and checking in weekly at no charge or personal gain for herself. I dont doubt that Fit For may be a good gym (Its been in situ long enough so must be doing something right) However the cost of membership means it is affordable for the few not the many. If I could afford that kind of fee I would rather get a train to Canary Wharf and go to Virgin active where theres a pool and incredible classes and facilities 
    • This sounds great 👍 
    • We found a red TREK bike yesterday that had clearly been stolen and dumped. Would love to reunite it with its owner. Get in touch if you know whose it is.
