- Book Synopsis
- It's late summer, 1983. Out in the street, the world is waiting to greet Margaret Thatcher as she emerges from hospital after routine surgery. But here in this room her life is up for deadly debate… and history is holding its breath. Two people. One window. A gun. When the time comes to pull the trigger, what side of history will you be on? Based on the incendiary short story by Hilary Mantel, The Assassination of Margaret Thatcher is a darkly funny and dangerously tense psychological thriller. Alexandra Wood's stage adaptation was first performed at Liverpool Everyman in 2026, directed by John Young. 'A small triumph: a lesson in artfully controlled savagery' Sunday Times on Hilary Mantel's original short story
