About Helen Lewis: Difficult Women
The Well-behaved women don't make history: difficult women do.
Strikers in saris. Bomb-throwing suffragettes. The pioneer of the refuge movement who became a men's rights activist.
Forget feel-good heroines: meet the feminist trailblazers who have been airbrushed from history for being 'difficult' - and discover how they made a difference.
Here are their stories in all their shocking, funny and unvarnished glory. This book has received rave reviews from the likes of Caitlin Moran, Hadley Freeman and Mary Beard.
