Event information

Date: Saturday 12 October
Time: 1-2pm
Cost: £12/£10 (Live-stream £5)
What if the greatest writer of all time isn’t who we think he is?
What if he isn’t even a he?
Moving between Elizabethan England and modern-day Manhattan, By Any Other Name explores the theme of identity and the ways in which two women, centuries apart – one of whom might just be the real author of Shakespeare’s plays – are both forced to hide behind another name to make their voices heard.
Jodi Picoult is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of 28 novels, including Mad Honey, Wish You Were Here, and My Sister’s Keeper, and two young adult novels co-written with her daughter. She lives in New Hampshire, USA.
Chaired by Professor Natalie Mears, Durham University.
