Recenzii
It's a gripping read, wonderfully researched and puts Cavendish back into the literary history books where she belongs. I loved it.
Fascinating
Well-written, well-researched, interesting and peppy.
5 STARS... Margaret Cavendish was a woman out of time. This blazing biography does her proud
[An] erudite and entertaining book
Scholarly, articulate, and never less than fascinating, this is a sensational debut.
[A] sparky celebration of a remarkable woman
Pure Wit is thorough and scholarly
A stellar debut. Francesca Peacock is as bold, bright and witty as her subject. Margaret Cavendish sears through every page and so does her blazing world.
This is historical biography as it should be written: intelligent and nuanced, witty and thoroughly riveting.
A fascinating book on a fascinating woman, who was not the "crazy duchess" of hostile legend, but a daring feminist pioneer.
Francesca Peacock adroitly recounts Cavendish's ordeals as a monarchist under Cromwell, her years in exile in Paris, her supportive marriage, her ennoblement and fame.
[Peacock's] enjoyable book is enriched by accounts of other women who lived remarkably in those remarkable times.
Perceptive and nuanced. A blazing account of a blazing woman.
