Furies Reviews

This anthology is all killer, no filler * Red Magazine *
A slick collection of clever tales, with something for bluestockings and banshees alike * Observer *
Some are historical, some are infused with the mystical and magical, some have threads of fierce commentary and some are laugh-out-loud funny. All of them fizz with energy, meaning and page-turner plots * The Scotsman *
Delightful and thought-provoking * Perspective *
Spell-binding . . . these vivid works of imagination are further proof that, back in 1973, Virago's founder Carmen Calil was on to something -- Kiran Duggal * Harper's Bazaar *
A collection of dazzling stories, as inventive as they are inspiring * Daily Mirror *
A collection of wild works by wild women is the perfect tribute to Virago's impact and legacy * Tortoise Media *
Some stories are historical, some are infused with the mystical and magical, some have threads of fierce commentary and some are laugh-out-loud funny. All of them fizz with energy, meaning and page-turner plots * The Press and Journal *
Definitely where power and feminist rage meet * Stylist *
[Furies addresses] the full panoply of 'isms' such as racism, ageism, heroism, terrorism, and classism, all congregated under feminism * Irish Examiner *
