Women Writing and Picturing War

Women Writing and Picturing War:  a Conversation with Lara Feigel, Lara Pawson and Susan Finlay. Chaired by Jennifer Hodgson.

From Lee Miller posing in Hitler’s bathtub to Rukmini Callimachi's recent expose on the abuse of Yazidi women female writers and artists continue to shape our perception of war - and yet their voices are often occluded. Academic and author Lara Feigel, former foreign journalist, and memoirist Lara Pawson, and artist and novelist Susan Finlay discuss their own approaches to tackling this complex subject matter, as well as the women who have inspired them. Women Writing and Picturing War is an important and timely way to celebrate books by women and bring out this crucial strand of feminism.
