Moradia inacessível, salários precários, saúde pública, mudanças climáticas não são temas comuns no debate público feminista. Mas não seriam essas as questões que mais afetam a esmagadora maioria das mulheres em todo o mundo? Inspiradas pela erupção global de uma nova primavera feminista, Cinzia Arruzza, Tithi Bhattacharya e Nancy Fraser, organizadoras da Greve Internacional das Mulheres (Dia sem mulher), lançam um manifesto potente sobre a necessidade de um feminismo anticapitalista, antirracista, antiLGBTfóbico e indissociável da perspectiva ecológica do bem viver.

With warmth and humour, Elizabeth Lovatt reimagines the women who both called and volunteered for the Lesbian Line in the 1990s, whilst also tracing her own journey from accidentally coming out to disastrous dates to finding her chosen family. With callers and agents alike dealing with first crushes and break-ups, sex and marriage, loneliness and illness (or simply the need to know the name of a gay bar on a night out), this is a celebration of the ordinary lives of queer women.

In Pink Cars and Pocketbooks, Jessica Brockmole shares the untold history of women's relationship with automobiles: a journey marked by struggle, empowerment, and the relentless pursuit of independence. This groundbreaking work explores the evolution of women's automotive participation and the cultural shifts that have redefined their roles as drivers, mechanics, and consumers.

These heroines include Evgenia, a prominent lawyer turned soldier, Oleksandra, who documented tens of thousands of war crimes and won a Nobel Peace Prize in 2022, and Yulia, a librarian who helped uncover the abduction and murder of a children's book author.
