About this Event:

The authors of Dangerous Women challenge womankind to ‘live as well as you dare’. Through their guide to modern life, they provide some of the answers to what it means to be a woman in the 21st century. Drawing on their own experiences and that of an eclectic range of writers, artists and iconic women, they tackle questions including whether you need to establish the weight of the soul, how to enter a convent, when to ring your lawyer, and whether to plan your wardrobe for a stint in hospital. Above all, Dangerous Women urges you to trust your instinct.
Liz Hoggard is a columnist and interviewer, and Sarah-Jane Lovett has delivered The Bad Sex Awards and hosted numerous literary salons. The event is chaired by literary journalist and broadcaster David Freeman. The previously advertised third author, Clare Conville, is unable to attend this event.
