Now in paperback, this tells the true story of English feminist Mary Wollstonecraft and her daughter Mary Shelley, who she never knew as she died shortly after giving birth to her. Wollstonecraft wrote "The Vindication Of The Rights Of Women" and Shelley wrote "Frankenstein", and they both left a powerful literary and feminist legacy. 'An excellent and poignant book whose heroines breathe in its pages.' David Aaronovitch, "The Times"
