I am absolutely delighted to be in conversation with biographer extraordinaire Anne de Courcy as part of the Virginia Woolf Society’s Dalloway Day this year, the theme of which is Modern/ist Women – and who could be more modern & more modernist than Nancy Cunard, the subject of Anne’s latest book:

As we will discover, Nancy Cunard’s move to Paris in the early 1920s allowed her the freedom to be fully herself as a person, poet, publisher & increasingly political activist.

And we may even pop down to the Riviera and into the life of another fabulously modern woman, Coco Chanel, if there’s time!

Do join us if you can. Full details are at: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/dallowayday-2022-modernist-women-hatchards-piccadilly-tickets-337301587127 – all welcome!
