Unwritten Woman
Hannah Lavery's Unwritten Woman is a bold and lavish call for us to see the woman in the stories we read and tell ourselves.
From her search for the story, in her home city, Edinburgh, through her chilling re-telling of Robert Louis Stevenson's Jekyll & Hyde, elevating the women in that classic tale from being written between the lines, to the woman of colour, shouting from the sidelines of our cultural landscape.
Hannah Lavery is an award-winning poet and playwright. Her pamphlet, Finding Seaglass was published by Stewed Rhubarb and her poem, Scotland You’re No Mine was selected as one Scotland’s Best Poems for 2019. The Drift, her highly acclaimed autobiographical lyric play toured Scotland as part of the National Theatre of Scotland’s Season 2019. She was appointed Edinburgh Makar in November 2021 for a three year term. Her debut poetry collection, Blood Salt Spring was published in March 2022 (Polygon).
