Description

Bonny and Read is a stunning new feminist retelling of the real-life female pirates of the Caribbean. In 1720, two extraordinary women are on the run - from their pasts, from the British Navy and the threat of execution, and from the destiny that fate has written for them.

Plantation owner's daughter, runaway wife, pirate - Anne Bonny has forged her own story in a man's world. But when she is involved in the capture of a British merchant ship, she is amazed to find another woman amongst the crew, with a history as unconventional as her own. Dressed as a boy from childhood, Mary Read has been a soldier, a sailor, a widow - but never a woman in charge of her own destiny.

A poignant and thrilling tale of female friendship, freedom and adventure, Bonny and Read is a beautifully told story that will keep you turning the pages until the very end.
