Danielle Giles // Mere
On Thursday 12th February at 7pm, The Bookery is delighted to welcome novelist Danielle Giles in conversation with folklorist Mark Norman for the paperback launch of her acclaimed historical gothic novel Mere.
Set deep in the Fens, Mere follows an isolated order of holy sisters whose lives are governed by faith and fear. When the mere claims a young servant boy, the convent’s fragile order begins to unravel, revealing secrets darker and more unholy than Sister Hilda could ever have imagined. As visions, curses, and forbidden love take hold, Giles weaves a tale of survival and transformation that is both timeless and unsettling. The novel’s claustrophobic setting and supernatural edge make it a perfect read for the long winter nights.
