Nancy Klein Maguire is the author of numerous publications on the relationship of theatre and politics in the seventeenth century. She is a regular contributor to the Los Angeles Times Book Review, and has been a Scholar-in-Residence at the Folger Shakespeare Library in Washington DC since 1983.
"Maguire has produced a vivid, gripping and deeply touching picture of a world that is now lost. For an outsider to enter such a closed society and to capture its essence is an astonishing achievement: this is a work of history, but it has all the best qualities of a psychological novel." Diarmaid MacCulloch, author of The Reformation: A History "A warm, readable account of life in Parkminster Charterhouse during the 1960s." The Bookseller"
