Artemis Storytelling: Silence told by Rachel Rose Reid

In the whole World, only one manuscript unfolds the Roman de Silence, inscribed in 13th century Cornwall & discovered at Wollaton Manor, Nottinghamshire in 1911 in a box marked 'Old Papers, No Value'.

It was too hot to handle. Suffrage protests were at their explosive height, & this tale suggested that England & King Arthur's lineage both depended on a quest for female freedom.

So the legend was silenced once more.
But the story was made to be told.
Now is the time to tell it.

"Immense skill and breathless conviction...There's no faulting Reid's command of her craft" The Times
