{"product_id":"eva-gore-booth-sonja-tiernan-9781526196972","title":"Eva Gore-Booth","description":"An acclaimed biography of poet, pacifist and political firebrand Eva Gore-Booth.\nThe Irish poet and activist Eva Gore-Booth (1870-1926) led a life defiantly at odds with her aristocratic origins. Choosing to live and work among the poor of Manchester, she campaigned on behalf of barmaids, circus performers, flower sellers and pit-brow lasses, her partner, Esther Roper, at her side.\nGore-Booth was tireless in her pursuit of justice. She was a militant pacifist during the First World War, a champion of Irish independence and a pioneering thinker on gender and sexuality. She was also a prolific author, publishing nineteen volumes of poetry and prose that reflect the full force of her radical convictions. \n Featuring a new preface that situates Gore-Booth's life and work in the context of our current political climate, this biography reclaims her place as a significant figure of Anglo-Irish letters and an unsung hero of LGBT+ history.","brand":"Manchester University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51293417701664,"sku":"9781526196972","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0753\/2812\/7264\/files\/9781526196972_2444185.jpg?v=1785230095","url":"https:\/\/bookcorner.com\/products\/eva-gore-booth-sonja-tiernan-9781526196972","provider":"The Book Corner","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
