By Her Hand by Marion Taffe
Readings
Join us to celebrate the launch of Marion Taffe's By Her Hand. By Her Hand is a powerful story, that delves into themes of survival, resilience, and forgotten female leadership in 10th-century England. It follows Freda, a young girl whose life is upended by a Viking raid, as she forges an unlikely bond with Æthelflæd, the real-life warrior queen of Mercia. The novel explores the silencing of women, the fight for agency, and the enduring relevance of female leadership in a patriarchal world. Kelly Gardiner will do the launching honours. Free, but bookings are essential. Please book here.
