Morning Coffee with Sarah Dunant
Wednesday 6 October
Unitarian Chapel
10.30am
Sarah Dunant is a writer, broadcaster and critic and the founding patron of the Orange Prize for Women’s Fiction.
Her latest novel, Sacred Hearts – the third in her internationally acclaimed triptych of books set in the Italian Renaissance – delves into the hidden lives of sixteenth century Benedictine nuns.
A rich, captivating, multifaceted love story, Sacred Hearts is a novel about power, creativity, passion, both secular and spiritual and the indomitable spirit of women in an age when religious, political and social forces were all stacked against them.
A writer of powerful historical imagination and wicked literary gifts.
