During the French Revolution, women took to the streets and engaged in politics like never before. The story of how they fought for the freedoms we now enjoy and still aspire to has never been more timely, or more inspiring.

About the Book
Ribbons of Scarlet tells the story of the tumultuous French Revolution from the female perspective, giving voice to heroines – princesses and peasants, harlots and wives, fanatics and philosophers – using their own documented words. Six authors each portray one historical figure, together representing the whole of the political spectrum, in an interwoven narrative that reads as one cohesive novel. Who will fall under the guillotine’s blade, and who will carry the Revolution’s shining ideals out of bloodshed into a new France?
