Join the book[ed]. society to celebrate Historical Fiction; its rich worlds, layered characters and the delicious blend of fact, imagination & discovery. You'll connect with readers who love slipping into other eras just as much as you do, and savor the stories that make the past feel alive. Spirited and full of bookish delight, it’s the perfect place to wander through history one page (and one conversation) at a time.
This retreat has already written its chapter, but the story doesn’t end here. Discover what’s coming next, or reach out to plan a custom retreat just for you.
