An extraordinary political biography of English suffragist, feminist, and socialist Sylvia Pankhurst Along with her mother Emmeline, and her sister Christabel, Sylvia Pankhurst was one of the leading women's suffrage activists in early twentieth-century England, working with the militant Women's Social and Political Union. Unlike her family, however, who looked to parliament and spoke to elite and middle-class women's concerns, Sylvia consistently looked to working women and the labour movement as central to her feminist politics. In this illuminating political biography, feminist historian Barbara Winslow recovers Sylvia Pankhurst's life and work for a new generation of socialists and feminists. From Pankhurst's organizing with immigrant and working women in London's East End to her revolutionary communism and growing internationalism and anti-fascism, Winslow gives us the story of a brilliantly inspiring unorthodox feminist and unorthodox socialist. With a preface from internationally recognized socialist feminist historian and activist, Sheila Rowbotham.

'A wonderful book ... Holmes sublimely illuminates Sylvia's extraordinary life' The Times 'A masterpiece' Vanessa Redgrave _______________ Born into one of Britain's most famous activist families, Sylvia Pankhurst was a natural rebel. A free spirit and radical visionary, history placed her in the shadow of her famous mother, Emmeline, and elder sister, Christabel. Yet artist Sylvia Pankhurst was the most revolutionary of them all. Sylvia found her voice fighting for votes for women, imprisoned and tortured in Holloway prison more than any other suffragette. But the vote was just the beginning of her lifelong defence of human rights. She engaged with political giants, warned of fascism in Europe, championed the liberation struggles in Africa and India and became an Ethiopian patriot. Her intimate life was no less controversial. The rupture between Sylvia, Emmeline and Christabel became worldwide news, while her romantic life drew public speculation and condemnation. Rachel Holmes interweaves the personal and political in an extraordinary celebration of a life in resistance, painting a compelling portrait of one of the greatest unsung political figures of the twentieth century. 'A monument to an astonishing life' Daily Telegraph, Best Biographies of 2020 'A robust and sensitive biography' Sunday Times, History Books of the Year 'A moving, powerful biography' Guardian

"Sylvia Pankhurst was the daughter of renowned Suffragette, Emmeline Pankhurst, and the sister of Christabel but her passion against oppression was not just limited to the cause of Votes for Women. She fought for better rights for India and helped Ethiopia gain independence. Her ability to attract interest in events and issues was so strong that Hitler placed her on an arrest list should he invade England whilst Mussolini viewed her as a threat. She argued with Lenin who decreed that 'Comrade Sylvia Pankhurst's policy ... was wrong' and George Bernard Shaw called her the 'queerest idiot genius of this age', whilst she shared poetry and politics with her lover, Keir Hardie. Few women had such an impact as the rebellious Suffragette but, as Shirley Harrison's fascinating study shows, although surrounded by famous names, she did not have an easy family life following the death of her beloved father, Dr Richard Marsden Pankhurst. Her own mother denounced her as a 'scarlet woman' when she became pregnant out of wedlock to the Italian revolutionary, Silvio Corio."--Publisher's Web site.

You're between two fires... They're very warm sometimes. Noah Adamson is the first Leader of the Labour Party; frequently torn between his socialism and principled support for votes for women on the one hand and the more reactionary views of too many of his colleagues. A middle-aged married man; he is also in love with the young socialist suffragette Freda McLaird. Things look bleak for the cause and the man. Still Noah – inspired by his soulmate – has time for hope and beauty. He looks forward to a time when the movement will be stronger. Sylvia Pankhurst wrote this previously unpublished play when imprisoned for sedition in the infamous HMP Holloway in 1920/21. Deprived of writing materials in solitary confinement, the legendary activist composed this dramatisation of earlier times with her beloved Keir Hardie – Labour's founding leader – with a contraband pencil on prison issue toilet paper. It would be nearly a hundred years before Pankhurst's biographer Dr Rachel Holmes would discover the play via painstaking analysis of the delicate fragments jumbled into brown envelopes in the archives of the British Library. Holmes' arrangement of the incomplete text brings the poignant story to life in this startlingly topical drama that speaks directly to our own times.
