'Barbara Erskine's storytelling talent is undeniable.' The Times
In her unique style of part contemporary, part history, Erskine in her sweeping new novel switches between Roman Britain and the present day, where history dramatically impacts on the lives of three women.
In the present day, Edinburgh based historian, Viv Lloyd Rees, has immersed herself in the legends surrounding the Celtic queen Cartimandua. She has written a book and is a working on a dramatisation of the young queen’s life. She then forms an uneasy working partnership with actress Pat Taylor, and they become the Daughters of Fire, a company dedicated to making dramas about women who have made history on their own terms. Both women become increasingly distressed as through visions, history is being played out before them. Cartimandua’s life takes one unexpected turn after another. The young queen has formidable enemies – among them Venutios, her childhood sparring partner, and Medb, a woman whose jealousy threatens not only her happiness but her life.
Question: What Was Erskine's First Novel?
Answer: A) Lady Of Hay
Good Luck
