Program Description

Event Details

Read & discuss The Thirteenth Tale by Diane Setterfield.

Margaret Lea, an antiquarian bookseller and biographer, receives a letter from Vida Winter, “the world's most famous living author.” Vida has always invented pasts for herself in interviews, but now, on her deathbed, she has decided to tell the truth and has chosen Margaret to write her story. Margaret travels to Yorkshire, interviews the dying writer, walks the remains of the estate and tries to verify the old woman's tale of a governess, a ghost, and more than one abandoned baby.
