The Women on Platform Two by Laura Anthony. Thanks to @gallerybooks for the gifted Arc ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
It’s 1968 and Maura has just married a handsome doctor. She’s disappointed to give up her retail job but excited to start a family. That desire changes when the doctor shows his true colors.
A great historical fiction that uses the fictional story of a 1960’s housewife to tell the real tale of Dublin’s (and other area’s of Ireland) fight for women’s rights, specifically contraception. The story of Maura was heartbreaking but a page turner. We meet her as a young working girl and see her vibrant, stylish, and vivacious personality. When she marries the wrong man all of this changes, but she learns about herself and the world and uses it for good. Major trigger warnings for abuse, suicide, and abortion.
“We need the ordinary housewives of Ireland to stand alongside us. We need every woman in Ireland to fight.�
The Women on Platform Two comes out 3/11.
