Washington Post'I adored this book . .&,nbsp,. a generous,
enlivening work, destined to be passed from friend to friend for a
long time to come' Megan HunterIn this intricate, intimate and
dazzlingly original group biography, Joanna Biggs looks to eight
revolutionary women writers who each sought freedom and
intellectual fulfilment in their lifetimes and asks: why is it so
important for women to read one another? By illuminating the
motivations, desires and disappointments of Mary Wollstonecraft,
George Eliot, Zora Neale Hurston, Virginia Woolf, Simone de
Beauvoir, Sylvia Plath, Toni Morrison and Elena Ferrante, Biggs
lights a way past the traditional goals and expectations of
femininity and towards a life lived generously and joyfully for
oneself.
