An evening with Nydia Hetherington – Sycorax

27 Mar 2025

19:00 - 20:15

Wave of Nostalgia, Haworth

A beautifully written and deeply moving imagining of what came before Shakespeare's The Tempest from the author of A Girl Made of Air.

Born of the sun and moon, shaped by fire and malady, comes a young woman whose story has never been told . . . They call her Sycorax. Seer. Sage. Sorceress.

Outcast by society and all alone in the world, Sycorax must find a way to understand her true nature. But as her powers begin to grow, so too do the suspicions of the local townspeople. For knowledge can be dangerous, and a woman's knowledge is the most dangerous of all . .
With a great storm brewing on the horizon, Sycorax finds herself in increasing peril - but will her powers save her, or will they spell the end for them all?

Nydia will read from her book, answer questions and sign copies.

The event is at 7PM on 27th March at Wave of Nostalgia, 74 Main Street Haworth BD22 8DP or on Zoom

Tickets are £5 and include 10% off all books in the shop at the event.
