Produktbeschreibung

Clara and Nancy both have choices to make. Two sisters, working in a women's prison in 1913; many of the inmates they are faced with have been arrested for their actions as part of the suffragette movement. For Nancy, there's one inmate in particular - the enigmatic Duchess - who she finds herself drawn to, following the Duchess' lead into the fight for the right to vote.

But for Clara, the choice is not so clear-cut. She's started stepping out with a chap called Ted. But if she were to marry him, she would have to give up the job she loves, and lose her independence forever.

Autorenporträt

Jon Walter is inspired by the power of ordinary people in extraordinary circumstances. A former photojournalist, he took pictures of the people we rarely get to see, and as a writer he listens out for the quieter voices of those that don't get heard. Here, inspired by the suffragette movement, he explores how it was the everyday decisions of women over their own lives that made its success inevitable.Jon's previous books, Close to the Wind and My Name's Not Friday, were also published by DFB, and have been shortlisted for numerous awards.
