Our final event for this year is with author Lissa Evans.
Lissa has written seven novels, including Their Finest Hour and a Half (filmed as Their Finest) and the trilogy comprising Crooked Heart, the best-selling Old Baggage, and V for Victory. Her recent book, Small Bomb at Dimperley, is set in a large country house just after the war.
Two of her four books for children, Small Change for Stuart and Wed Wabbit, were shortlisted for the Carnegie Medal. Lissa has a background in TV comedy, and last year published a reminiscence about her time as the producer of the iconic sitcom ‘Father Ted’, entitled ‘Picnic on Craggy Island’.
