Claire Tomalin

I am very excited because I’ve been invited to the Claire Tomalin talk in the Guildhall at the Bath Literature Festival on 6 March. The event is being sponsored by Jane Austen's Regency World, so a big ‘thank you’ to Tim Bullamore for his kind invitation. I am a huge fan of Claire's work – I particularly enjoyed her biographies of Jane Austen and Samuel Pepys – so I will be counting the days to my trip!

Congratulations! That sounds like quite an honor. I think the Tomalin bio is by far the best.

I do, too, although David Cecil's 'Portrait of Jane Austen' is another long-standing favourite.
