Muriel Spark’s MI6 work to be examined during writer’s centenary…
Dame Muriel Spark’s little-known work writing “black propaganda” for MI6 during the Second World War will be examined during a year-long programme of events marking the centenary of her birth.
The celebration of Edinburgh-born Spark, who published her debut novel after honing her writing skills with the intelligence service, will include a special event looking at how her MI6 role helped develop her writing skills and went on to influence her novels.
