For centuries past, and all across the world, there are words that have defined and decried us. Words that raise our hackles, fire up our blood; words that tell a story. In this blazing cauldron of a book, sixteen bestselling, award-winning writers have taken up their pens and reclaimed these words, creating an entertaining and irresistible collection of feminist tales for our time.
This short story anthology challenges an assortment of some of the best contemporary female writers to interpret a variety of the derogatory names for disruptive women throughout history. Like any anthology, it is varied in tone and style, but overall a fantastic and fierce collection well worth exploring!
