A Bite of the Apple: Behind the Scenes at Virago Press | Lennie Goodings

2 posts | 2 to read

In this insightful memoir Lennie Goodings takes the reader behind the scenes at Virago, the feminist press that she has led for twenty years. Moving from Virago's early days of independence, through its various commercial incarnations, the author reflects on idealistic publishing and how it feels to be a beacon for change.

This is “part memoir, part history of Virago and part thoughts on over forty years of feminist publishing...”.

As a Virago fan, I just had to have it! 🍎
