Brazen: Rebel Ladies Who Rocked the World by Pénélope Bagieu

5.0

This comic might easily get lost in the sea of similar-looking books shedding light on women's stories that have been ignored/forgotten/unknown until recently, but unlike some of those (which seem to have been rushed to print simply to ride the pro-lady zeitgeist), Bagieu's book showcases a diverse lineup of history's heroines written engagingly and sans sugarcoat. I loved her book about Mama Cass before the Mamas and the Papas (California Dreamin')...now I wish she would write full-length memoirs for each of the women in Brazen.
