The news of twice Booker-winning author Hilary Mantel's sudden death due to stroke on September 22, 2022 shocked everyone. And now, in a recent memorial service held for the author at Southwark cathedral in England, her literary agent revealed that Mantel was writing a "mashup" about Jane Austen's classics when she died.
"She was having the greatest fun dissecting a literary icon,” Bill Hamilton said, reported The Guardian. He also revealed that Mantel was planning to shift to Ireland, before her death.
