Description

ICI London presents the next event of The Italian Library, a collaboration with Italian books unquestioned authority Ornella Tarantola, formerly manager of the Italian Bookshop. In our beautiful Montale Library, Ornella talks about books and writers, music and Sanremo, star signs and podcasts, Gadda, and Virginia Woolf.

The eighth event is on Monday 13 May (6.30 pm). This event will be a talk with Tudor Allen, Senior Archivist at Camden Local Studies and Archives Centre. This illustrated talk will tell the history of London’s Italian quarter from the time of the first Italian settlers up to the last days of the community in the later 20th century. Ice-cream, organ-grinders and monkeys, hokey-pokey men, murder, gangsters and spectacular processions are just some of the ingredients that make the story of the Italians of Holborn and Clerkenwell one full of colour, incident, and drama.

This is an in-person event.
