Over the past few years I've been delved into many different adaptations of Robin Hood and even a good handful that have centered around Maid Marian, and while each one has been unique in its own way, the Forest Wife trilogy by Theresa Tomlinson does stand apart from the others. In it can be felt the influence of ITV's 'Robin of Sherwood' from the 1980s, but also of the local folklore from her childhood, early Robin Hood ballads, and medieval history, but without losing the author's distinct, and decidedly feminist, voice.
It was a pleasure talking with Theresa Tomlinson and I hope that you enjoy my interview where we delve into her influences and the themes of her novels.
