Judith Kingsley, 18th century woman and fiance of William Foxwell of South Carolina, will be making an appearance at Around About Books this Saturday, November 29th, 2008. Though a bit confused by all of the horseless carriages and fireless torches, she intends to 'carry on' in the English tradition and speak to those in attendance regarding her fiance's daughter Miriam and her forbidden love, COPPERHEAD. Judith will most likely also be sipping lattes and handing out fliers advertising the event. Please come and join us if you are in the area.
PS I really just wanted to play around in the costume now that I have panniers to wear under it! As Miriam put it in COPPERHEAD, 'the wrath of God' should be called 'down upon the man who had decided that a ‘proper’ woman must wear soft leather shoes and skirts three feet wide.'
