VICTORIAN SCIENTISTS & SCANDALS

​

Carolyn's illustrated lecture explains how her research into the origins of psychology helped create her novel The Conviction of Cora Burns.  The talk focuses on three controversial Victorians: Arthur Munby, W.T. Stead and Francis Galton, and it explores how fiction intertwines with real lives and true stories from 19th century Britain

WOMEN WITH WINGS

​

When We Fall was inspired by women pilots of the Second World War. Carolyn's illustrated talk explores the lives of four of these remarkable women, including record-breaker Amy Johnson who lost her life whilst flying for Air Transport Auxiliary, and the Polish pilot Janina Lewandowska, the only female victim of the massacre of Polish prisoners of war by the Soviet Union at Katyn in 1940.
