Drawing on years of investigation and Anne Listers five-million-word secret journal Learned by Heart is the long-buried love story of Eliza Raine an orphan heiress banished from India to England at age six and Anne Lister a brilliant troublesome tomboy who meet at the Manor School for young ladies in York in 1805 when they are both fourteen. Emotionally intense psychologically compelling and deeply researched Learned by Heart is an extraordinary work of fiction by one of the worlds greatest storytellers. Full of passion and heartbreak the tangled lives of Anne Lister and Eliza Raine form a love story for the ages.
