Lucy Hughes-Hallet talks to Claire Armitstead

Fictions: Peculiar Ground

Hay Festival 2017, 

From the multi-award-winning biographer, author of the The Pike, comes a breathtakingly ambitious, beautiful and timely debut novel. The story is about gamekeepers and witches, agitators and aristocrats; about young love and the pathos of ageing. And about how those who wall out others risk finding themselves becoming walled in.
