Lizzie Fawkes has grown up in Radical circles where each step of the French Revolution is followed with eager idealism. But she has recently married John Diner Tredevant, a property developer who is heavily invested in Bristol's housing boom, and he has everything to lose from social upheaval and the prospect of war. Soon his plans for a magnificent terrace built above the two-hundred-foot drop of the Gorge come under threat. Tormented and striving Diner believes that Lizzie's independent, questioning spirit must be coerced and subdued. She belongs to him: law and custom confirm it, and she must live as he wants--his passion for Lizzie darkening until she finds herself dangerously alone.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWeaving a deeply personal and moving story with a historical moment of critical and complex importance, \u003ci\u003eBirdcage Walk\u003c\/i\u003e is an unsettling and brilliantly tense drama of public and private violence, resistance and terror from one of our greatest storytellers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHelen Dunmore\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of fourteen novels.
