Romantic Outlaws: The Extraordinary Lives of Mary Wollstonecraft and Her Daughter Mary Shelley tells the story of these two intriguing women. Mary Wollstonecraft was a feminist and she wrote The Vindication of the Rights of Women. Her daughter, Mary Shelley was the author of Frankenstein.
Even though they were mother and daughter, Wollstonecraft died one week after Shelley's birth. However, their lives were such a reflection from their dreams and choices to the sadness that filled their lives.
This story shared their story in such a touching, amazing way that I had to keep reading to see how these two women shared so much, including the affect they were to have on history through their lives and writings.
I was given this book by NetGalley in exchange for my honest review. Thank you so much NetGalley and Charlotte Gordon.
