Jenny Eclair joins the Festival line up!

Jenny Eclair is an extremely popular broadcaster, comedian, actor and writer. She is one of only two female winners of the Perrier Award, and often features on BBC radio and television, best known for her roles in Grumpy Old Women and Loose Women.

Moving – Jenny Eclair’s fourth novel – reveals a writer at the height of her powers. Gripping, heart-breaking and laced with black humour, it is a novel of family secrets, shocking betrayals and most of all, of home. Edwina Spinner has lived in the same house for over fifty years. It used to be a busy, crowded family home but now Edwina lives alone and it has grown too big for her. She has decided to sell it.

Tickets for Jenny Eclair will go on sale at 9am on Tuesday 1 September when the Box Office opens for the general public.
