Arthur Miller
Jill Dawson writerJill Dawson writer

Loved Arthur Miller’s The Crucible (now at @nationaltheatre), even played Abigail in school’s version but why did a 17 year old girl and her sexiness get the blame? My new novel tells the true story - set in England, of a similar case, 100 years earlier, rather differently https://t.co/EZsba1YFcY
