Recenzii
Nellie Bly - what a girl! In this compelling tribute to a fearless young reporter of Victorian New York, Treger brings to vivid life the way one woman's broken past gives her the strength to expose the many horrors faced by others left to rot in an asylum. Both a pioneering writer and early icon of sexual equality, Nellie's true-life story is compassionately told in this remarkable read
Treger provides a moving story, particularly powerful in its depiction of Bly's desperate efforts to retain her sanity in the midst of institutional madness.
Louisa Treger takes us deep inside the mind of an extraordinary woman, whose ambition to succeed in a male world leads her to the very brink of madness. It's a moving, absorbing, and beautifully written story, and a terrifying portrait of the fate many women suffered in the late nineteenth century. A must read!
Treger's finest novel to date, which is really saying something. An astonishing tour de force, the perfect amalgam of research and imagination. Nellie leaps off the page and her experiences are rendered in shocking, visceral detail. An important and shining book that brings to light a female pioneer who needs to be understood and celebrated. Brava!
Vivid and written with compassion, Treger illumines Bly's risky reporting that led to radical reform
Lovers of historical fiction won't be disappointed.
An intimate and intriguing portrait of a fascinating and complex woman. In Madwoman, Louisa Treger combines hertalents of storytelling and imagination to bring Nellie Bly firmly out of the history books and back into the spotlight where she, and her trailblazing journalism, belong. Fabulous
A propulsive, compelling novel of the lengths one woman will go to expose the truth about how those most in need of help are kept in danger
Praise for Louisa Treger: 'A daring blend of romance, crime and history, and an intelligent exposé of the inherent injustice and consequences of all forms of oppression
A spirited account of a flamboyant life
Madwoman is one of the best, a magnificent portrayal of Nelly Bly in all her journalistic integrity and daring
