About this series
Long before Suzanne Collins created Katniss Everdeen and Octavia Butler wrote Parable of the Sower, there were many traditional folktales full of adventure, intrigue, and intrepid female characters. Feminist Folktales from Around the World collects these forgotten classics.
Volume four in the series, The Hunter Maiden features an introduction by Renee Watson, the New York Times bestselling author of Piecing Me Together. In these eleven adventures, a diverse cast of female protagonists lend their daring and determination to everything from battling evil wizards in Russia to outsmarting tricky demons in South Africa. In the title story, a young member of the Zuni Native American tribe proves her resourcefulness as she confronts cultural double standards and malicious winter spirits.

Mar 27, 2017
Today marks five years since the death of Adrienne Rich, the incredible poet, essayist and feminist activist. I’ve been thinking about Rich a lot lately; so much of what she has written feels even more urgent and necessary than ever, especially as the creative community grapples with the sudden change in what it feels like to make Art in our new, ugly America. Of course, much has not changed, but merely been brought to our attention—but Rich herself was almost never fooled in this way. To give just one example, in 1997, Rich refused the National Medal for the Arts, writing to President Bill C
