Evans is a brilliant storyteller' Stylist 'A timely, bittersweet comic novel' Guardian 'A thoughtful, funny, companionable novel' Sunday Times _______________________________ What do you do next, after you've changed the world? It is 1928. Matilda Simpkin, rooting through a cupboard, comes across a small wooden club - an old possession of hers, unseen for more than a decade. Mattie is a woman with a thrilling past and a chafingly uneventful present. During the Women's Suffrage Campaign she was a militant. Jailed five times, she marched, sang, gave speeches, smashed windows and heckled Winston Churchill, and nothing - nothing - since then has had the same depth, the same excitement. Now in middle age, she is still looking for a fresh mould into which to pour her energies. Giving the wooden club a thoughtful twirl, she is struck by an idea - but what starts as a brilliantly idealistic plan is derailed by a connection with Mattie's militant past, one which begins to threaten every principle that she stands for. Old Baggage is a funny and bittersweet portrait of a woman who has never, never given up the fight.","brand":"Transworld Publishers Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Used - very good","offer_id":53364950696278,"sku":"9781784161217-V","price":3.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Used - good","offer_id":53423917597014,"sku":"9781784161217-G","price":2.79,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/5829\/5382\/files\/product_image_9781784161217_1.jpg?v=1777869592","url":"https:\/\/www.momoxbooks.com\/products\/evans-lissa-old-baggage-9781784161217","provider":"momoxbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
