11 College StAbout Mrs Dickens: Emily Howes in conversation with Natasha Poliszczuk
Join us for an evening with the author of Mrs. Dickens, Emily Howes, in conversation with Natasha Poliszczuk.
Emily's latest book Mrs Dickens has been described as 'a beautiful, heartbreaking, immersive novel, which brings a woman's silenced story back to vivid, irrepressible life'. Emily and Natasha will discuss the turbulent (and possibly enraging) story of Kate Dickens, who wrote a cookbook, climbed Vesuvius and travelled the world - but whose husband tried to erase her, saying of their marriage ‘a page in my life that once had writing on it is now completely blank and has not a single word upon it’.
