For centuries past, and all across the world, there are words that have defined and decried us. Words that raise our hackles, fire up our blood; words that tell a story. In this blazing cauldron of a book, sixteen bestselling, award-winning writers have taken up their pens and reclaimed these words, creating an entertaining and irresistible collection of feminist tales for our time.

Eleanor Crewes

Eleanor Crewes is a London-based illustrator and writer. She graduated from Illustration at University of The Arts London in 2016. The Times I Knew I Was Gay was first created as a hand-stitched zine which Crewes biked across London to various comic shops. As demand grew her zine developed into a larger book that she published in 2018 with Good Comics. After selling out the first edition Crewes expanded it into a fully-fledged memoir with Virago and Scribner for publication in 2020.
