Politics & Prose Willard Literary Series: Philippa Gregory Cocktail Hour

From Philippa Gregory, the #1 New York Times bestselling author behind the Starz original series The White Queen, comes The King's Curse. The sixth installment of Gregory's Cousins' War saga, opens in 1499 with Henry VII on the throne, securing his position by executing potential rivals. The sister of one recently dispatched Plantagenet, Margaret Pole, Countess of Salisbury, struggles to keep her own balance as lady-in-waiting to the wife of Prince Arthur then, after Arthur's death, as governess to Henry VIII's daughter, Princess Mary. Gregory's vivid and dramatic retelling of the Blessed Margaret's life captures the intrigues and suspense of British history.

The Willard InterContinental celebrates its literary roots partnering with famed Washington, D.C. independent bookstore, Politics & Prose on a series of teas and luncheons with notable authors and thinkers. The Series is a nod to the Willard's literary history as the home away from home for such legendary writers as Walt Whitman, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Mark Twain, Charles Dickens, Emily Dickinson and Julia Ward Howe. The Series is curated by Politics & Prose, DC's premiere independent bookstore celebrating thirty years in 2014.
