So I'm sure we could all come up with a fantasy place to go and read, at leisure, for a few hours? Where you didn't have to worry about the weather?
Maybe my first thought would be a library or cafe or large bookshop. But they might be a bit noisy?
The answer would be somewhere away from home.
I long for an old fashioned women's members club in London (I think there's one at the beginning of The Enchanted April) where you can sit in a big leather armchair just far enough away from other members. Discreet "servants"(!) bringing you pots of tea etc. Lovely ladies powder room to visit subsequently! Newspapers and periodicals spread on a table to read. You get the idea?
I know there are still Private Members Clubs but probably too pricey. Where's realistic?
im really keen on the idea of somewhere indoors. Doesn’t have to be London. A specific place or type of place. Either
