SUMMARY:Dangerous Women - Elizabeth Fremantle & Annie Garthwaite on Women in Historical Fiction
DESCRIPTION:UPDATED \nUnfortunately Caroline Lea will not be able to join us for our Dangerous Women event in July due to a private health matter but fortunately acclaimed author and good friend of the bookshop Annie Garthwaite has stepped in to help. On the night we will still be discussing Love\, Sex & Frankenstein by Caroline Lea\, Sinners by Elizabeth Freemantle and now Annie Garthwaite’s The King’s Mother which tells the story of four dangerous women! We are so excited to delve deeper into these powerful women who are so often overlooked in historical records. \nJoin us in conversation with best selling authors Elizabeth Fremantle and Annie Garthwaite on why women in Historical Fiction were often viewed as ‘Dangerous’ for rebelling against society’s rules and expectations. \nWe are looking forward to be back at Kenilworth School & Sixth Form for this wonderful event. Our last event here SOLD OUT so please book promptly if you would like to join us. \nBook your tickets here! \nAs The King’s Mother by Annie Garthwaite is our July Book Club pick this can be ordered on our Book Club page here or be bought on the night! \nMore info on our authors and their latest novels: \nSinners by Elizabeth Fremantle is a page-turning feminist retelling of the tragic short life of the young Roman noblewoman Beatrice Cenci. Bringing to life sixteenth-century Rome and a trial that became legend\, this new novel explores one woman’s rage and her determination to stand tall in the face of the violence of men. Liz is the critically acclaimed author of four Tudor historical novels: Firebrand (formerly Queen’s Gambit)\, Sisters of Treason\, Watch the Lady and The Girl in the Glass Tower. ELizabeth’s debut is now a standout feature film FIREBRAND\, with Alicia Vikander starring as Katherine Parr and Jude Law playing Henry VIII and it was nominated at Cannes for a Palme d’Or. \nAnnie Garthwaite is the acclaimed author of two novels that bring the women of the Wars of the Roses to life. Cecily (Viking\, Penguin 2021) was named a ‘top pick’ by The Times and Sunday Times\, a ‘Best Book of 2021’ by independent bookshops and Waterstones\, and has recently been optioned for television. The King’s Mother (Viking\, Penguin 2024) was named ‘Book of the Month’ by The Times immediately upon publication and has just been released in paperback. Annie came to writing after a 30-year international business career\, determined to cast light on a female history so often overlooked. \nLove\, Sex and Frankenstein by Caroline Lea is a reimagining of the summer of 1816 when Mary Shelley stayed at Byron’s villa and wrote Frankenstein. Caroline delves into female rage\, creative madness and the jaw-dropping scandal that bore the world’s most famous work of gothic fiction. Tipped as ‘a highly original and inventive writer’ by the Sunday Times\, Caroline is a star on the rise\, impressing media and peers alike and loved for her previous book Prize Women which was Kenilworth Books top selling Fiction title of 2024!
