SUMMARY:Author Event: An Evening with Alison Twells
DESCRIPTION:Perfectly timed for International Women’s Day 2027 \nA Place of Dreams: Desire\, Deception and a Wartime Coming of Age – Alison Twells \n  \nNorah Hodgkinson (1925-2009) was a working-class schoolgirl\, later clerical worker\, and a prolific diarist. In 1940\, at the age of 14\, she knitted a pair of socks for the Royal Navy Comforts Fund. The sailor who received them wrote to thank her\, drawing Norah into a mysterious ‘love triangle’ and an experience that we would now call sexual grooming.  \n  \nWhen Norah died in 2009\, Alison Twells – her great niece and a professional historian – received a suitcase archive containing Norah’s 71 pocket diaries\, a collection of photographs and the sailor’s letters. In A Place of Dreams\, Alison explores the coming-of-age of an ordinary girl in wartime and uncovers a dark tale of male rivalry\, wartime anonymity and a young woman’s appetite for life and love amidst unexpected dangers. \nTickets on Sale Soon – £3
