Betsy Roberts Miller ⁂How many people here have read (and enjoyed!) Josephine Tey's book "The Daughter of Time" ? The Castle Players in Barnard Castle recently performed her play "Dickon" in St Mary's Church, Barnard Castle. They sold out four performances, one of which was recorded. Thanks to the Richard III Society for providing the YouTube link! <a href="https://historians.social/tags/JosephineTey" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#JosephineTey</a> <a href="https://historians.social/tags/Dickon" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#Dickon</a> <a href="https://historians.social/tags/Play" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#Play</a> <a href="https://historians.social/tags/Richard3" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#Richard3</a> <a href="https://historians.social/tags/RichardIII" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#RichardIII</a> <a href="https://historians.social/tags/PrincesInTheTower" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#PrincesInTheTower</a> <a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/histodons" class="u-url mention">@histodons</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/@RichardIIISociety" class="u-url mention">@RichardIIISociety</a> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7NTtVYbG_7c" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7NTtVYbG_7c</a>

Jonathan EmmesediI've just finished Josephine Tey's "The Franchise Affair" and have been struck by its conservatism. This excellent Sarah Waters essay spotlights some of the fears and resentments seething in the book.I would recommend "The Franchise Affair" not just as a gripping detective story but also as an insight into the post WW2 Tory mind.
