Join Gail Holmes for an intimate discussion about her debut historical fiction novel, In the Margins. Inspired by the real-life Frances Wolfreston — a woman who dared to think, write, and defy expectations in 17th-century England.   

In the Margins explores the sacrifices Frances made as an intellectual woman — risking everything to protect words, books and literature, including her efforts to preserve the only known copies of Shakespeare’s earliest works.   

A must-attend event for fans of Tracy Chevalier or Pip Williams, this is a tale of resilience, passion, and the enduring power of literature to transcend time.   

Moderated by Fi Wright, book reviewer for Triple R Breakfasters.

Suitable for ages 16 and up. Free event. Bookings essential.
