Description
Toddler in tow, Bee Rowlatt embarks on an atypical journey on the lookout for the life and legacy of the primary celebrity feminist: Mary Wollstonecraft. From the wild coasts of Norway to a naked re-birthing in California, by means of the blood-soaked streets of revolutionary Paris, Bee learns what drove her hero on and what is been won and lost over the centuries within the battle for equality. In this biographical treasure hunt she finds herself consulting a witch, a porn star, a quiet Norwegian archivist and the tenants of a blighted council estate in Leeds–getting a lot more than she bargained for. In her quest to discover a new balance between careers and babies, Bee also discovers the significance of celebrating the radiant power of love in all our lives.
