“I really enjoyed reading this anthology. 15 wild and wicked stories, all written by women - what’s not to love?!
I quite enjoyed the different writing styles - each story was incredibly unique. Some stories appealed to me more much than others, as will always be the case with a collection of short stories like this.
The overarching theme of womanhood resonated throughout, and I especially loved that each title reclaimed a word which has previously been wielded as an insult towards women, and transformed it into something powerful.
My personal favourites:
‘Termagent’ by Emma Donoghue
‘Harridan’ by Linda Grant
‘Tygress’ by Claire Kohda
‘Virago’ by C N Lester”About Margaret Atwood
