Our aim is to bring together as many Caroline Norton related resources under one roof – a sort-of one stop shop for all things Mrs Norton, but without plastering her face on a tea towel… well, not just yet anyway.
The Criminal Conversation of Mrs Norton by Diane Atkinson
£12.00
Westminster, London, 22 June 1836. Crowds are gathered at the Court of Common Pleas. On trial is Caroline Norton, a beautiful and clever young woman who had been manoeuvred into marrying a dull, violent and controlling man – the brother of 3rd Lord Grantley. Dr Diane Atkinson’s seminal work on Caroline Norton laid the groundwork for all those that followed. It is the definitive story of Caroline Norton – her remarkable life, her loves and her literature.
