Summary:
Meet Anne Lister, the 18th Hundred years landowner, industrialist, explorer, lesbian and feminist icon. This is her story…
Anne was not the same as society’s goals of a female at that time: she not merely did not wish to marry, but she also did not desire to conform. Anne was just interested in females and got ‘marriage’ ceremonies with Mariana Lawton and later on Ann Walker. She spent significant amounts of time studying, maintained her very own estates, sought work at home opportunities, travelled broadly and climbed mountains
Within this full-cast BBC Radio 4 dramatisation written by Mary Cooper and starring Deborah McAndrew as Anne, we meet the serial diarist as she describes her life, her loves and the societal changes happening around her.
