Kate Hodges is a journalist with over 25 years of experience. First published in 2018 and re-republished in 2023, this book of 84 portraits (illustrated by Sarah Papworth) shows the connections between women from the 19th century to the present day. While it mixes lesser known women with the great and the good, it‘s very western focused, some of the connections are tenuous and Papworth‘s illustrations somewhat anaemic and lacking in personality.
