Glorious Freedom: Older Women Leading Extraordinary Lives


Overview

With her charming illustration style and honest voice, Lisa Congdon explores the idea that after a certain age, women begin to worry less about what other people think, become more themselves, pursue new endeavours, and become ever more free. Profiles, interviews, and essays from women—both famous and everyday—who’ve found creative fulfilment and accomplished great things in the second half of their lives are beautifully illustrated and hand lettered.
