The Festival is one of the most significant literary festivals in the UK, attracting thousands of people who share one passion: a love of books, writing…

The debut novel by the National Theatre board member and former RSC executive director is an intimate, moving and witty story about a love that cannot be spoken. It’s 1951. Miss Dora Ham and Miss Beatrix Veal work in a rural Buckinghamshire post office, careful to maintain their facade as respected local spinsters. But theirs is a love story that began at a suffrage rally in the 1900s, and took them to London’s secret gay clubs between the wars. Now, over the course of one pivotal day, their carefully constructed world begins to fall apart. Talking to RSC Artistic Director Daniel Evans.
