Critics Review
Praise for Suzannah Dunn A remarkable writer, a lyricist of ordinary life and ordinary people transfigured by extreme emotions - Daily Telegraph

It takes a good deal of artistry to create the illusion of real life, and she has managed something more difficult still, which is to show us how strange real life can be - The TimesFrankly, I’m tiring of the Tudor industry - but this delightful novel stands out from the mob … Dunn lights up one of history’s forgotten corners - SagaDunn skilfully transports the reader to the oppressive atmosphere of Wolf Hall, seat of the Seymour family in Tudor England, and the heavy-handedness with which men treat their womenfolk - LadyI often abandon historical novels nowadays but I really could not put this one down - Alison WeirSuzannah Dunn
Launched in 1990 with her debut novel, Darker Days Than Usual, Suzannah Dunn wrote a further 5 critically acclaimed contemporary novels, and a short story collection, published by Flamingo, before writing her first historical novel, The Queen of Subtleties, which was published in 2004. She has since written a further three bestselling historical novels, The Sixth Wife, The Queen’s Sorrow and The Confession of Katherine Howard (a Richard & Judy pick in 2011). The May Bride is her new book.
