Literary Lunch with Kate Mosse

Kate Mosse writes the kind of novel that demands to be read in a single sitting, her richly detailed prose leaving you powerless to resist. With Labyrinth (2005), she took the literary world by storm, spinning a complex, century-spanning yarn that drew together the modern and the medieval.

A prolific author, she’s gone on to pen six more novels, perfecting her historically-minded craft and receiving an OBE for services to literature. Her most recent book The Taxidermist’s Daughter was a haunting evocation of that most gruesome of trades. It won near universal praise, and rightly so.

First Story, a charity working with young writers, is now offering the chance to join Kate for a literary lunch. The author will be in conversation with the organisation’s co-founder William Fiennes, and later taking part in a Q&A and book signing. What better way to spend a Monday lunch?
