Biographer Anne Sebba, novelist Sarah Dunant and historian David Kynaston explore how history is told through the pages of Persephone books. There will also be a short tribute to the historian Juliet Gardiner (who is unable to attend the event): as well as writing three Persephone prefaces, she has been a huge influence on the way each Persephone book is placed in a historical context. The event will be chaired by former Persephone Books employee Celia Lloyd Davidson.
