The Daylight Gate

Jeanette Winterson weaves a dark and atmospheric tale set during the 1612 Pendle witch trials in Lancashire. This haunting novel blurs the line between history and magic, where accusations fly, fear grips a community, and the shadows hold secrets that refuse to stay buried. Winterson's prose is sharp and evocative, pulling you into a world where superstition and persecution collide with raw human emotion. Perfect for readers who love historical fiction with a gothic edge, or anyone drawn to stories of women, power, and the supernatural.
