In Conversation with Karen Powell

Culture House Sunderland is delighted to host a conversation with author Karen Powell about her fascinating historical novel, Fifteen Wild Decembers.

Karen is an author living in North Yorkshire. She read English Literature at Cambridge University as a mature student and now writes full-time. She is currently working on a new novel set in Italy.

Fifteen Wild Decembers is a creative re-imagining of the short life of Emily Brontë, one of England’s greatest writers.

Isolated from society, the Brontë children spend all their time inventing elaborate fictional realms or roaming the wild moors above their family home in Yorkshire. Emily appears taciturn and unexceptional; but beneath the surface her mind is in a creative ferment, ready to burst forth to create a masterpiece that will change the literary world forever.
