ART, TATTOOS AND EXTRAORDINARY LIVES: WRITING TRAILBLAZING WOMEN

Louise Treger, author

Thursday 30 January 1.00 pm COURSE FEES R110; Staff and students R55

In Louisa Treger’s novels, history comes alive through the pioneering women who defied convention and rewrote their own destinies. Dorothy Richardson, Lady Virginia Courtauld, Nellie Bly and Dora Maar reshaped culture and left indelible marks on history – in an era when women were seen as property, and subordinated to male desire and power. But have things really changed for women today? Treger’s novels don’t just recount the past – they challenge us to see its reflection in our modern world, asking if the battles fought by these remarkable women are truly over or if their struggle for freedom and identity continues to this day.
