Manchester Literature Festival
Join us for an inspiring evening with internationally bestselling author and Founder Director of the Women’s Prizes Kate Mosse, as she shares insights from her groundbreaking new non-fiction book, Feminist History for Every Day of the Year.
This richly illustrated collection celebrates 366 remarkable women and girls – one for every day of the year – whose courage, creativity and vision have shaped history. From the trailblazers you know – Mary Wollstonecraft, Malala Yousafzai, Simone Biles and Sophie Scholl – to warrior queens, pioneers, activists and unsung heroes, Kate will share empowering stories from across the globe and throughout history.
Kate Mosse is a bestselling novelist, playwright, and non-fiction writer, including the multimillion-selling Languedoc Trilogy, The Joubert Family Chronicles, and The Taxidermist’s Daughter. Her highly-acclaimed non-fiction includes Warrior Queens & Quiet Revolutionaries: How Women (Also) Built the World. A champion of women’s stories, Kate founded the Women’s Prize for Fiction and Non-Fiction, as well as the global #WomanInHistory campaign.
