In her work, Dame Hilary Mantel revealed an entirely fresh dimension of Thomas Cromwell, one that had not been brought to light before.

Next summer, a remarkable event awaits at Cadhay, where we will gather to pay homage to Hilary and her exceptional literary contributions. The occasion will not only celebrate her remarkable work but also offer a unique opportunity to delve into the intriguing life of her protagonist, Thomas Cromwell.

Today I am joined by the mastermind behind this event, David Holland. David will share some insight into Hilary that you may not have known before as well as her connection to Devon and Cadhay House. We'll discuss whether or not she chose Cromwell as her lead character and much, much more!
