UPCOMING EVENTS
praise for one madder woman
What an enchanting world! Trailblazing
artists, smouldering sensuality, and the rare
mind of a visual artist who changed the way
we see. Every time I left the book, I rushed to
return, to be beguiled again by Crane’s deft
and painterly vision, and her penetrating
exploration of a woman genius at work in
a field utterly dominated by men.
