A reappraising history of the remarkable women who Pablo Picasso shared his life with - whose individual stories and influence on the artist have been overlooked until now

The untold stories of six women who loved Picasso

Hidden Portraits

'Sand seems as alive as if she had just walked out of the room... quietly witty... fascinating' The Times 'Thought-provoking... written with energy, passion and commitment to its fascinating subject' Literary Review My friends will respect me, I hope, just as much under my jacket as under my dress... So take me for a man or a woman as you wish. By the age of thirty, the novelist who had been born Aurore Dupin in 1804 had become the internationally renowned George Sand. In English, her daring literary experiments were out-selling even Victor Hugo. But the legend of Sand herself scandalised Paris. Not only prodigiously talented but cigar-smoking, cross-dressing and promiscuous, she seemed to break all the rules society set for women. What can we learn from the way she lived? Was her iconoclasm simply an act of courage, a declaration of absolute autonomy? Or did her emotional and creative relationships with many of the leading figures of her day - from Fryderyk Chopin to Gustave Flaubert, and Alfred de Musset to Eugène Delacroix - form part of her dialogue with the world around her: a dialogue that is intrinsic to writing itself? In Becoming George, award-winning poet and biographer Fiona Sampson rehabilitates Sand as an intellectual and artistic giant, the beating heart of French literature in the nineteenth century. Too often underestimated in the century and a half since her death, she speaks to us today - about ecology, politics, society, gender - with brilliant prescience; a figure ahead of her time. Praise for Fiona Sampson: 'Fiona Sampson beautifully describes the "self-invention" of George Sand, the Romantic period's most famous woman writer, and in the process paints a vivid portrait of a world in the throes of political and artistic revolution.' Maurice Samuels, Professor of French, Yale University 'Fiona Sampson is a sleuth of a biographer ... rarely has my jaw dropped on so many occasions while reading a biography.' Ysenda Maxtone Graham, Daily Mail on In Search of Mary Shelley 'Brilliant, heart-stopping ... reads like a thriller, a memoir and a provocative piece of literary fiction all at the same time ... magical and compelling.' Charlotte Gordon, Washington Post on Two Way Mirror: The Life of Elizabeth Barrett Browning 'If we get another literary biography [this year] as astute and feelingful as this one, we shall be lucky.' John Carey, The Sunday Times on In Search of Mary Shelley

The Invention of George Sand

Becoming George

'Absolutely unputdownable' The Mirror 'A riveting, raw and savage story' Ghouls Magazine 'An intense, gory and brutally honest tale' CrimeReads 'Timely, terrifying, and touched with humour, this book will chew you up and spit you out' C.J. Dotson _______ Every #tradwife needs a baby. Camille will get one - no matter the cost. Camille lives to embody the perfect traditional wife-cooking, cleaning, homesteading, and documenting it all for her followers. But without a baby, her image-and her following-feels incomplete. As Camille's husband begins to withdraw and his attention in her waning, Camille's desperation deepens. When Camille discovers a crumbling well hidden in the wheat field behind her new house, she is drawn to it, despite its proximity to an intimidating local forest. Unsure of what else to do, she makes a wish. Soon, she's haunted by vivid dreams she believes are divine. Then something visits her-something not quite angelic. Her belly swells unnaturally fast. Her cravings turn raw. And yet, her announcement goes viral. But as Camille's influence grows, so does the horror inside her. The life she always wanted is finally within reach... if it doesn't consume her first. _______ Readers love Trad Wife: 'An incredibly timely horror story!' 'Unsettling and sharply clever' 'A dark and fascinating look into society and standards for women'

ICH! Neue ungehaltene Reden ungehaltener Frauen

“Just as much an investigator as a memoirist, Nevils attempts to tunnel through the lurid details and the #MeToo boilerplate and unearth something much knottier.” —The Atlantic A powerful and personal examination of our most persistent and dangerous misunderstandings, myths and stereotypes about sexual harassment and assault In 2017, Brooke Nevils made a confidential HR complaint about one of the most powerful and familiar faces in media. Twenty-four hours later, the highest paid morning news anchor in history was fired, stunning millions of Americans in one of the MeToo era’s defining stories. Demanding answers—and the intimate details of the most personal and painful humiliation of her life—the press soon discovered her identity. But hers was not the kind of black-and-white story the media knew how to tell. There’d been no explicit threats. She hadn’t screamed, fought, or gone to the police. Instead, she returned to her abuser again and again in a frantic attempt to “fix” an impossible situation that threatened her livelihood and the people closest to her. Yet as MeToo unfolded, Brooke learned that messy stories like hers were far from the exception, and that nearly everything she’d believed about sexual harassment and assault—and how victims react to it—was wrong. She began a yearslong effort to confront and understand her own experience, not simply as a woman reckoning with her past, but as a journalist confronting the critical questions that MeToo asked but ultimately left unanswered. Through groundbreaking interviews with leading clinicians, forensic professionals, attorneys, and frontline researchers, Unspeakable Things challenges our understanding of consent, power, and the lingering, often misunderstood effects of trauma and shame. Despite its rarefied setting at the height of fame, power, and American media, Brooke’s story serves as a textbook example of an all-too-common scenario that continues to devastate lives and enable abusers. This book is a powerful re-examination of everything we think we know, the start to a new conversation, and—for anyone who has ever felt ashamed, hopeless, alone, and afraid—a light in the dark.

Unspeakable Things

A sparkling biography of the legendary Fulvia of Ancient Rome, described by Cicero as 'a thoroughly rapacious woman'.

The Woman Who Broke All the Rules in Ancient Rome

Fulvia

Passion and Power is about the life and career of Harriet Newman Cohen, one of the nation's most celebrated divorce attorneys, as she navigated the male-dominated legal world from the 1970s to today. This sweeping narrative details Harriet's journey through three worlds: raising a family at a time when men held all the power, graduating from law school on the cusp of the "divorce revolution," and re-fighting old battles over women's rights in today's time of reaction of retrenchment. The frankness with which Harriet relates her own experience is matched by equally candid insights into how a legal system that often rewards bad behavior and irrational decision-making shapes the culture at large and impacts those trying to navigate their way towards a better life. Writing with candor and humor, Harriet describes her encounters with celebrities, mentors, notable judges, allies, and adversaries. She examines many cases but describes three in almost novelistic detail, all drawn from her own practice-including her pivotal role in the "Case of a Lifetime," the focus of the three-part documentary HBO series Nuclear Family (2021). Harriet is equally honest about the business side of the law-the financial cost and psychological burden these proceedings impose on families and the sometimes-heartbreaking collateral damage. Passion and Power illuminates both a singular life and the legal and social revolution that changed, in fundamental ways, the sexual, financial, and cultural norms governing the most intimate relations between men and women.

Passion and Power

A sweeping collection of women's writing on the wandering path, moving across genres, geographies, and centuries. The follow-up to the celebrated Wanderers, Kerri Andrews's Way Makers is the first anthology of women's writing about walking. Moving from Elizabeth Carter's correspondence with Catherine Talbot in the eighteenth century through to Merryn Glover in the present day, and across poetry, letters, diaries, novels, and more, this anthology traces a long tradition of women's walking literature. Walking is, for the women included in this anthology, a source of creativity and comfort; it is a means of expressing grief, longing, and desire. It is also a complicated activity: it represents freedom but is also sometimes tinged with danger and fear. What cannot be denied any longer is that walking was, and continues to be, an activity full of physical and emotional significance for women: this anthology is a testament to the rich literary heritage created by generations of women walker-writers over the centuries.

'Utterly gripping, enraging, entertaining - and important. I can't recommend it highly enough' Jennifer Higgie In 1958, talented and fearless and eighteen years old, Liliane Lijn left her family home and moved to Paris alone to become an artist. Once there, she found an art world filled with the wild energy of creative revolution - peopled and controlled almost entirely by men. Embracing the bohemian spirit of the Left Bank, Lijn built a life for herself in the city, befriending artists, poets and revolutionaries and creating ground-breaking sculptures with light, text and movement, despite being told again and again that there are no great women artists. Liquid Reflections is her sparkling memoir of these years of experiment and adventure. Based on personal diaries from the time, this is a riveting and revelatory portrait of the artist as a young woman. 'A whirlwind of encounters . . . a pioneer in melding art, poetry and science' Art Basel

First published in 1984, Abortion Freedom explains the main reasons for widespread international liberalisation of abortion laws. Colin Francome points out that the birth control movement had its roots in a concern with overpopulation and that this is still a crucial issue today. A major change, however, is that whereas in the early days the socialists were often opposed to birth control they are now amongst the keenest supporters of the woman's right to choose. The author pays particular attention to the debates in the United States, France and Italy. It is aimed primarily at students of politics, sociology and law but it has a much wider appeal to the general public as a readable explanation of the ideas and strategies of the opposing forces involved.
