Things a Bright Girl Can Do

Product Description

1914 The world stands on the edge of change. But women still have no vote. Evelyn is seventeen, and though she is rich and clever, she may never be allowed to follow her other brother to university. Life is set out for her: dances, tea parties, and marriage. But Evelyn wants freedom and choice, even if it means paying the highest price alongside her fellow Suffragettes. And then there's May, who campaigns tirelessly for women's votes and fair pay with other anti-violence suffragists. When she meets Nell, a girl who's grown up in hardship, she sees a kindred spirit. Together and in love, the two girls start to dream of a world where all kinds of women can find their place. But the fight for freedom will challenge Evelyn, May and Nell more than they ever could imagine. As the Great War looms, just how much are they willing to sacrifice?
