Mad Madge (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781990738876)

Meet Margaret Cavendish, 17th-century philosopher, poet, playwright--a scandalous Jill-of-all-Trades and mistress of none. In her unapologetic pursuit of fame, Madge ditches her dysfunctional family to join the court of an unruly Queen and leave her mark on history. Paying homage to Jane Austen and Tina Fey in the same breath, this laugh-out-loud contemporary/period mashup suggests that perhaps a woman's hunger for unbridled attention is not so shallow, after all.
