Description

Set against the backdrop of one of America's most pivotal moments, Galia Gichon's novel tells the story of Helen Fox, a factory worker who finds herself drawn into the Suffragist movement after tragedy strikes.

In 1912, Helen's life is turned upside down as she navigates the challenges of her newfound activism, including estrangement from her husband and ostracization by those around her. As she works alongside famous activists, she must confront her own doubts and fears in order to find her voice and fight for equality.

The narrative spans a decade, taking Helen from the streets of New York to the picket lines of Washington D.C., as she becomes increasingly embroiled in the struggle for women's rights. A powerful and moving portrayal of one woman's journey towards independence, The Accidental Suffragist is a testament to the enduring power of activism and the human spirit.
