Day 11
A re telling of the true story of Geillis Duncan, one of many thousands of witches hanged or garroted then burned.
Witch mania meant many innocent women were tortured & sentenced to death.
This book describes their horrific treatment.
The cover of the book. A seven storey tenament house stand alone in the middle; it has a large keyhole overlaid over the floors, and an eye peers through. Red leaves fall all around the cover, and there is an organic pattern behind the image.
Book 71 is "Lukenbooth" by Jenni Fagan.

The front cover of 'Ootlin' by Jenni Fagan shows a toddler in a winter coat and bobble hat.
The front cover of 'The Coast Road' by Alan Murrin shows an isolated single house with the backdrop of the sea.
Two outstanding bookshouts, both recently listened to on Audible. 'Ootlin' by #JenniFagan narrated by Isis Hainsworth and 'The Coast Road' by #AlanMurrin narrated by Jessica Regan. Both incredible, palpable and necessary.
