Meet Anne Lister, the 18th Century landowner, industrialist, explorer, lesbian and feminist icon. This is her story...Anne was different from society's expectations of a woman at the time: she not only did not wish to marry, but she also did not want to conform. Anne was only interested in women and had `marriage' ceremonies with Mariana Lawton and later Ann Walker. She spent a great deal of time studying, managed her own estates, sought business opportunities, travelled widely and climbed mountains. In this full-cast BBC Radio 4 dramatisation written by Mary Cooper and starring Deborah McAndrew as Anne, we meet the serial diarist as she describes her life, her loves and the societal changes happening around her.
