Somerset House Book Club welcomes back David Bramwell, author of The No 9 Bus to Utopia. David will be talking about his brand-new book The Haunted Moustache, based on his successful solo show of the same name and Sony-award-winning BBC radio program. 

After inheriting a 100-year-old moustache in a box, David Bramwell embarks on a quest to find its original owner. From Doncaster to Brighton a strange and fascinating journey unfolds, recalling some truly eccentric characters, peculiar cults and spooky coincidences along the way. As in The No 9 Bus to Utopia, David unearths fascinating communites and individuals who have found alternative ways of living outside of society.

It is a unique and beguiling tale told by an engaging storyteller, guaranteed to entertain and get you thinking about the mysterious ways of this Universe we’re all living in and the true meaning of magic in the 21st century. 

The Bookshop at Somerset House hosts the Somerset House Book Club every other month in various spaces around Somerset House.
