Book Description
London 1797. Die Hebamme Parthenia Blenkinsop hat schon unzählige Babys auf die Welt gebracht, aber so etwas wie im Haus von Mary Wollstonecraft hat sie noch nicht erlebt. Ein höchst unkonventioneller Haushalt, eine liebevolle, gleichberechtigte Ehe. Und vor allem Mary selbst – eine offene, liebenswerte Frau, mit der Mrs. B wie mit ihresgleichen reden kann. Doch die Geburt ist lang und schwer. Elf Tage lang kämpft Mrs. B um das Leben von Mutter und Kind. In diesen elf Tagen erzählt Mary ihrer neugeborenen Tochter ihr Leben: ihr Kampf um Frauenrechte, die Reisen, Wagnisse, Verluste und Triumphe. Und vor unseren Augen wird eine furchtlose, tief beeindruckende Frau lebendig. Nicht nur Mrs. B wird diese elf Tage nie vergessen.
