Genius Writers Playing Cards

A stylish set of playing cards featuring watercolour illustrations of some of the most exciting literary figures from the 20th and 21st centuries.

Each suite features a group of writers from a specific period: Modern (Spades), Mid-Century (Hearts), Postmodern (Clubs) and Contemporary (Diamonds). Includes Colette, Maya Angelou, Margaret Atwood, Samuel Beckett, Doris Lessing and Zadie Smith among many others - so that even if you lose, at least you'll have some suggestions for your reading list.
