When it is announced that the love of Anne's life Marianna Belcombe will be married to the older and wealthy Charles Lawton, Anne is distraught. And so she begins a string of relationships, most notably with the wealthy heiress Ann Walker. But while Ann is a proud, strong and supportive partner in a time when lesbianism just isn't tolerated, can Anne's feelings for her ever match those she has for Marianna? Revealing a surprising side to the world painted by Jane Austen and the Bront‰s, The Secret Diaries of Miss Anne Lister is an inspiring story of a woman who challenged convention and was determined simply to be herself.
