Sandi Toksvig is one of the nation’s best-loved writers and performers, most regularly heard as presenter of Radio 4’s News Quiz.
In this programme, she discusses her sweeping new novel – a story of gender, liberty, empire and injustice. It’s London 1897 and Valentine Grey, arriving in England from India, is forced into corsets and skirts. The only bright spot: her exciting cousin, Reggie, and his lover Frank.
