Part journal, part keepsake commemorating twenty-five years of the Women’s Prize for Fiction, this beautiful book is intended to inspire you to pick up your pen. It’s also a compendium of the history of the Prize, spotlighting each of the phenomenal winners from the past quarter of a century – from Ali Smith and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie to Madeline Miller and Naomi Alderman.
The journal features gorgeous colour illustrations as well as an appendix listing all the brilliant women who’ve judged the Prize and the books they’ve shortlisted throughout the years.
Alongside an introduction by Founder-Director Kate Mosse, there are inspirational quotes and exclusive writing tips from previous winners, and space for notes to help you find your own voice.
