Katharine Susannah Prichard and Hugo Throssell were engaged one hundred years ago at the end of World War One. I wrote about their whirlwind courtship in a column for the KSP Writers’ Centre here. Also, December’s column features a piece of my biography I’ve cut – Katharine’s obsession with lavender in London; you can read it here.

I used to be obsessed with lavender too. So many books I read as a girl featured a woman scented lightly with the small lavender bag that she wore under her clothing. It seemed like the height of elegance to me.

How interesting. It is a lovely fragrance and still gets a mention in the biography, just not as much any more.
