It is with great personal pride and pleasure that I can announce on this auspicious February day, the upcoming release of a piece of work from my favourite piece of work…oh, sorry, is that not polite? Ahem…a masterpiece from the Duchess of Dilettante-ism, the Mistress of Memoir, the one and only Helena Hann-Basquiat, a friend and blogger I have had the honor to know for nearly a year.

What is this magnificent memoir, you ask? Well, keep reading because, really, no one can say it better than the Dilettante herself.

MEMOIRS OF A DILETTANTE VOLUME ONE – COVER REVEAL!

COMING SPRING 2014 — official date TBA

Memoirs of a Dilettante is a collection of reminiscences, following Helena Hann-Basquiat, a self-proclaimed dilettante who will try anything just to say that she has, and her twenty-something niece, who she has dubbed the Countess Penelope of Arcadia, in their off-beat antics in such places as common as the local McDonald’s or the comic book store, to their travels to Miami for the search for the perfect Cuban sandwich. Interspersed between wacky one-off adventures, Helena tells personal, sometimes painful stories from her past in order to try and make sense of her life as it has played out, tempering everything with an indomitable sense of humour.

Cummerbund Bandersnatch, the Accidental Plagiarist, strippers, rock stars, geeks, freaks, and the Barista With No Name — these are just a few of the characters you’ll meet inside.

Discover Helena’s tales for the first time or all over again, with new notes and annotations for the culturally impaired — or for those who just need to know what the hell was going through her mind at the time!
