“I am no bird, and no net ensnares me” Jane Eyre (#13)
In this episode we have an interview with Patricia Bracewell, author of the Emma of Normandy historical fiction series ‘Shadow on the Crown’, ‘The Price of Blood’ and ‘The Steel Beneath the Silk’. We discuss all things Anglo-Saxon, Viking and strong women in history! This leads Paul and Gwyn on to a chat about strong female leads in fiction. We also briefly mention the BBC’s Big Jubilee Read, which is an interesting list of 70 books that are representative of each decade since 1952 from across the UK and the Commonwealth. Oh, and not forgetting, you may wish to check out the magnificent Fun Lovin’ Crime Writers!
