The Women of Corsica by Julia Gasper, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

The women of Corsica are as remarkable and extraordinary as everything else about this unique Mediterranean island. Through centuries of fierce struggle it has bred women who are tough, brave, resourceful and redoubtable, passing on a culture that has often been materially poor but spiritually rich. Here they are, wives and warriors, saints, spies and seductresses, poets, painters, patriots and bandits. Anyone who visits the island and is interested in learning more about its women will find this a useful little handbook. | The Women of Corsica by Julia Gasper, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
