About The Author
Naomi Mitchison
Naomi Mitchison (1897-1999) was a distinguished Scottish author whose groundbreaking feminist books of historical fiction, fantasy and sci-fi are as radical, free thinking and bohemian as any author writing today. At the time, her radical voice inspired such writers as Ursula K. Le Guin. She also led a fascinating life as a passionate campaigner for a range of social and political issues, such as supporting socialists in 1934’s Nazi-threatened Vienna, running a women’s sexual health centre, protesting at Greenham Common in her 80s, and being adopted as adviser and mother of the Bakgatla tribe in Botswana. She died in 1999 at the age of 101, with over seventy books to her name.
