About this Event

Elle Machray is the author of the remarkable debut 'Remember, Remember' which spun a historical tale of conscience, conspiracy, queer identity and courage in the face of injustice in 1770 London.
Now back with 'Havisham' Elle takes arguably Dicken's most memorable character and reimagines her life with ambitious storytelling.

"From the very first page, you know you are in the hands of a supremely talented writer… This is a glorious feminist reimagining that gives Miss Havisham the story she deserves" NAOMI KELSEY
