The Art Trip

A joyous romantic comedy, bursting with keenly observed wit, all the romance of Italy and a generous dose of Nineties nostalgia The Art Trip will leave you charmed and uplifted.

It’s 1998 and the annual Langton Community College trip to Rome and Florence is about to depart. History teacher Beverley Ridley might be looking forward to it, if only it weren’t for her nemesis, Ken Smith-Wemyss; whilst for art teacher Ken, the feeling is definitely mutual.

Meanwhile, Beverley’s daughter Jessica dreads the trip’s social situations as she hides an obsessive crush.

As they all fall under the inspiring influence of Italy and its art, who’ll learn the most about love?

The sparkling debut novel from indie author Lisa Graham, The Art Trip is wonderfully warm and delightfully funny, the perfect read for lovers of art, lovers of Italy and lovers of love.
