‘David was slack...And now that he was twenty-three, he was all too well acquainted with the town’s ways. Arthur had him in the business now and was trying to knock some kind of discipline into him, but it was uphill work.’
- Antimacassar City, Guy McCrone
He’s a Romantic with a capital ‘r’.
Inspired by the bohemian lifestyle of the younger Moorhouse brother, join us as we close our Wax Fruit weekend with a book exchange. Bring some of your pre-loved books and exchange them for new reads, learn more about Holmwood's history, and see up close the costumes and production stills from the Wax Fruit teaser trailer.
Make sure to be brave and explore the rooms of Holmwood, where you may just discover some hidden pre-loved books waiting for a new home!
Included in your ticket is a hot drink and sweet treat of your choice from our cafe.
Our Wax Fruit weekend is celebrating the re-publication of Guy McCrone's trilogy of books. First published in the 1940s, it tells the tale of the ambitious Moorhouse family, as they navigate the world of 1870s Glasgow.
