Rediscovering Women Writers January 15, 2009

Persephone Books print mainly neglected 20th-century fiction and non-fiction by women, for women and about women. The titles are chosen to appeal to busy women who rarely have time to spend in ever-larger bookshops and who would like to have access to a list of books designed to be neither too literary nor too commercial. The books are guaranteed to be readable, thought-provoking and impossible to forget.
In this lecture, Nicole Beauman will talk about the some of the women writers that have been republished during the ten years she has been running Persephone Books.
