«Outsiders» is the collective biography by Lyndall Gordon, published by Virago Press in paperback (352 pages, in English).
Lyndall Gordon interweaves the lives of Mary Shelley, Emily Brontë, George Eliot, Olive Schreiner and Virginia Woolf to show how their outsider status drove innovative writing. Without female models, they turned stigma into creative freedom and their own voice. Gordon defines them as prodigy, visionary, outlaw, speaker and explorer.
It is a non-fiction work on literature and history, published by Virago Press on June 7, 2018.
For readers of literary biographies, women's history and feminist criticism, interested in five authors who shaped English-language narrative.
Lyndall Gordon is a British-based biographical and former academic writer, known for her literary biographies. She is a senior research fellow at St Hilda's College, Oxford.
