A new book - women who changed music

In Revenge of the She-Punks, “punk professor” Vivien Goldman examines female space in music and how it has evolved. In her book she attempts to "amplify female voices across cultures, continents and generations and to understand the relationship between genre and gender, all the while showing how oppression and hard-won freedoms have yielded some of the most electrifying music ever made", as Guardian writes. “Our path is beset with particular pitfalls, which makes our glories all the sweeter” - Goldman, journalist and a musician herself, says.
