Cocktails & Conversation with Emily Franklin

In conversation with Amy Bass, author and NRPLF Board Member

October 29th 6:30 pm

From the bestselling author of The Lioness of Boston, comes Emily Franklin's gripping story of love, lust, monsters, and betrayal.

In the scandalous summer of 1816, Claire Clairmont—Mary Shelley's stepsister and Lord Byron's lover—changed literature forever, then vanished from its pages.
