Talks at Willoughby: Jane Caro

Women over fifty-five are of the generation that changed everything. They didn’t expect to. Or intend to. Accidental Feminists is their story. 

Jane Caro explores how living in the world at the time — with the pill and a regular pay cheque — transformed women and how, almost in spite of themselves, they revolutionised the world. 

Accidental Feminists is a celebration of grit, adaptability, energy and persistence. It is also a plea for future generations to keep agitating for a better, fairer world.

Lindfield Bookshop will have copies of the author’s book available on the day for sale and signing.

Free event, book here.
