About this listen
York, 1318. A nun is fed up with her life of poverty, chastity and obedience. So, Joan of Leeds does the obvious thing: she fakes a mortal illness and crafts an effigy “in the likeness of her body,” which is then buried by her Benedictine sisters. What life awaits Joan beyond the nunnery walls?
Hosted by: Alice Fiennes and Poppy Damon.
