{The Gallery} Week 20 – A Novel Idea

by Liz on July 20, 2010

Tara’s come up with a corker this week!

‘This week’s theme is: A novel idea. A photograph which you think represents a favourite book or novel or even children’s tale. A classic, pulp fiction, a fairytale, a modern masterpiece. Dracula, On Chesil Beach, Lord of the Rings, Little Red Riding Hood. Tell us which book and why your photo illustrates it for you.’

So here’s mine, E.M Forster’s ‘Room with a View’ – one of my all time favourite books.  I took this at The Hoste in Burnham Market Norfolk a couple of years ago.

So inviting isn’t it?

Cool picture. That would be hard to pick a picture that reminds you of a book.

SNAP!

My photo is different to yours but my love of the book is the same.

It’s been ages since we’ve been to The Hoste Arms – must go back soon, it’s not far away.
