In the second half it’s all diary entries, with talk of Anne’s ridiculous contradictions, her constant incurring of crosses, and of course grubbling. Join us with a beverage of your choosing, as we take a deeper look into the extraordinary life of Anne Lister and her courtship of the lovely Ann Walker. Also, we have a Patreon now!
