Diana Darke To Help Raise Funds For Wandsworth Museum | |||
Putney author, broadcaster and authority on Syria will be giving a talk
Woven into the story of buying and restoring an ancient courtyard house in the heart of Old Damascus are layer upon layer of Syrian history, philosophy, art and architecture. The richness and diversity of Syrian society are explored, while its natural creativity and humour are revealed through its characters. Diana Darke is a fluent Arabic speaker and has specialised in the Middle East for over 30 years. She is is a contributor to the Guardian, the Financial Times and the BBC.
