Filled with details of the large and small choices these women made, these daily routines are a source of fascination and inspiration. Vorwort From Vanessa Bell and Charlotte Brontë to Nina Simone and Jane Campion, here are over one hundred and forty female writers, painters, musicians, sculptors, poets, choreographers, and filmmakers on how they create and work.
