Reviews
"Pataki digs into the fascinating and all-too-short life of Margaret Fuller, a trailblazing 19th-century writer whose circle of contemporaries included Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry David Thoreau, Nathaniel Hawthorne, the Italian revolutionary Giuseppe Mazzini, and the poet Elizabeth Barrett Browning. In Pataki's skilled hands, all of those historical figures and more come alive on the page, bringing rich context to the colorful tale of Fuller, who defied social convention to become both one of her era's most esteemed writers and a founding inspiration of the women's rights movement. . . . all of us who later benefitted from the march toward equal rights for women should read this book, which honors an early feminist icon who broke nearly every rule laid out for her and in doing so, inspired a generation and led the way into a brighter future with courage and heart." --Kristin Harmel, New York Times bestselling author of The Paris Daughter "Literature lovers rejoice! Finding Margaret Fuller is a novel where all of your heroes are characters, the most formidable of which is Margaret herself, a woman who had the courage and smarts to stand at the center of Transcendentalism and inspire a generation of American thought.
