Description

‘Whimsical, fun and witty. Annabelle Hirsch’s book is a like a treasure hunt through history, culture, politics, fashion and art – from cave paintings and bikinis to menstruation cups and Madame Pompadour’s sealing stamp’ – ANDREA WULF

‘Such a satisfying and educational insight into the minds and activities of our united ancestors and a reminder, lest we forget, that women are and have always been, whether quietly or vociferously, on the periphery or centre stage, the engine, the glue, the inspiration behind it all’ – GILLIAN ANDERSON

‘I adored this book! Our history and our power are not just ideas, but play out in the ways we interact with the physical world. Hirsch’s intimate observational gifts turn that world into a rousing, living record of all that we have wrestled with’ – OLIVIA COLMAN

‘A fantastic cabinet of curiosities that rethinks the role of women in history. Educational, funny – a joy!’ – LEILA SLIMANI

‘I love this book . . . A new feminist history of the world . . . Stirring, provocative and carefully researched’ – LAUREN ELKIN
