Essays, poetry, scripts, songs and short fiction from the 1980s by women writers, variously exploring female anger as creative and political trigger. A wide-ranging collection of known and lesser known creative and academic voices that speak to the inclusivity of the collective that selected and edited the work. Includes excellent pieces by Vicki Viidikas, Ania Walwicz and a counterpoint essay by Ann Curthoys on second wave feminism as the product of a white, middle class ‘spoilt generation’, who ignored class oppression.
