Abortion: a personal story, a political choice

From the author of I Hate Men, a personal and political reflection on abortion rights. Discussion about abortion and associated rights are often limited to either 'anti-abortion' or 'pro-choice,' the latter of which focuses on the importance of having the right to choose, rather than on what that right means for real people. In this timely essay, Pauline Harmange provides an intimate, detailed account of her abortion. Reminiscent of Annie Ernaux's Happening, Abortion is nuanced, complex, honest, and precise. Harmange gives voice to the emotions, reflections, and contradictions that someone could experience when they choose to terminate a pregnancy. At a time in which women's reproductive rights are being called into question around the world, Abortion is a clarion call, a powerful personal testimony, and a resolutely political vision: to restore power to our experiences, all our experiences, by sharing them, and to transform society for the better.

Letters to My Weird Sisters: On Autism and Feminism

An autistic feminist author looks at women's history, in search of her 'weird sisters.' It seemed to me that many of the moments when my autism had caused problems, or at least marked me out as different, were those moments when I had come up against some unspoken law about how a girl or a woman should be, and failed to meet it. An autism diagnosis in midlife enabled Joanne Limburg to finally make sense of why her emotional expression, social discomfort and presentation had always marked her as an outsider. Eager to discover other women who had been misunderstood in their time, she writes a series of wide-ranging letters to four 'weird sisters' from history, addressing topics including autistic parenting, social isolation, feminism, the movement for disability rights and the appalling punishments that have been meted out over centuries to those deemed to fall short of the norm. This heartfelt, deeply compassionate and wholly original work humanizes women who have so often been dismissed for their differences, and will be celebrated by 'weird sisters' everywhere.

Midlife crisis? What midlife crisis? At forty-four, Cynthia Smart is exactly where she wants to be. Almost. In a couple of years, she'll be the CEO of the company she's spent most of her adult life working in. For now, though, she's still busy shimmying up the greasy pole of corporate business. She's single, carefree, and independent, and nothing can stop her getting what she wants and deserves. Until she discovers she's pregnant. Determined to have her cake and eat it, she's convinced that having a baby will make little difference to her life, and that she will be one of those women who can hold down an incredibly demanding job and also be a perfect mother. But as her pregnancy progresses and her life slowly falls apart, she has the sneaking suspicion that Max Oakland, the new guy on the block, is out to steal her dream job. That she's terribly attracted to him doesn't help, nor does the fact that he's devilishly handsome, appears to be a really nice fella, and is good in a crisis. When she gradually comes to realise that something has got to give, what she doesn't want it to be is her heart. Perfect for fans of Mandy Baggott, Heidi Swain, and Holly Martin.
