Join The Reading Room and author Tina Gaudoin for a talk and signing about her newly published book 'The Incidental Feminist'.

Meet the woman behind the politician

Since stepping down in 1990, Margaret Thatcher has become a cardboard cut-out hate figure or an iconic defender of freedom, depending on your politics. In The Incidental Feminist: Friend, foe, femme fatale: The truth about Thatcher, Tina Gaudoin investigates the complexities of the woman behind the tropes.

Drawing upon explosive new material from the archives and interviews with her contemporaries, Gaudoin reveals how Thatcher triumphed over rampant misogyny and class prejudice to normalise female power and manipulated her femininity, sexuality, and intellect to become the most powerful woman in the world.

'Offers a remarkable new view of a remarkable and still under-appreciated leader’ Simon Jenkins

Publishing to coincide with the 100th anniversary of Margaret Thatcher’s birth.
