The Trials of Radclyffe Hall

Radclyffe Hall was born in 1880 in Bournemouth in a house inappropriately named 'Sunny Lawn'. At the mercy of a violent mother and sexually abusive stepfather, her life changed when, aged 18, she inherited her father's estate, leaving her free to travel, pursue women and write. Diana Souhami brings a fresh and irreverent eye to the life of this intriguing and troubled woman.
