Lucy Hughes-Hallett: The Scapegoat

June 12, 2025

From the winner of the Baillie Gifford Prize, a stunning biography of one of the most flamboyant and enigmatic seventeenth-century Englishmen at the heart of political and royal life. Lucy Hughes-Hallett will transport us into a courtly world of masques and dancing, exquisite clothes, the art of Rubens and Van Dyck, gender-fluidity, same-sex desire, and appallingly rudimentary medicine.

This event will include an audience Q&A and after the event there will be an opportunity to get your book signed by Lucy.
In partnership with Anglia Ruskin University.
